This new model of care intends to provide integration across patient pathways, including Single Point of Access (SPoA), clinical triage, physiotherapy, orthopaedics, spinal, rheumatology, pain management, surgical interventions and therapies across MSE. It will assess and treat more patients outside of acute services and deliver improved outcomes, quality and patient experience of care.\nEstimated dates between which the service is intended to be provided: The Proposed Contract duration is five years from 1st February 2026 until 31st January 2031, with an option to extend for a further three years beyond the initial term, until 31st January 2034. \nApproximate lifetime value of the contract: At the point of publication of this PIN, the Authority proposes a cost and volume financial model (local prices) in line with national guidance. The potential aggregate contract value (incl. extension term, growth/inflation assumptions, and potential variations) is \u00a3164,149,073 (excluding VAT). The financial envelope which will act as an affordability cap for the purposes of the competitive process will be \u00a390,163,317 based on the initial 5-year contract term.\nThe Proposed Contract to be entered into by the Authority and the Preferred Bidder(s) for the Services will be based on the NHS Standard Contract 2025/26 (full-length) and all subsequent variations thereof from time to time during the contract term.\nFurther information can be found at VI.3 and in the Process documents available from https://attain.bravosolution.co.uk/.
