Luton Community Services

Descriptions

Luton CCG, with Associate Commissioners Luton Borough Council and Bedfordshire CCG, commission Cambridgeshire Community Services NHS Trust to provide adult and paediatric community services. Enhanced Services are provided by general practice for gynaecology, phlebotomy, marginalised groups (homeless) and minor surgery. The contracting authorities intend to extend these services to 31 March 2023, with an estimated contract value of GBP 24.9 million per annum and are publishing this VEAT notice in accordance with Regulation 72. The contract extension allows the CCG to continue transformational work with its incumbent providers, which aims to provide increased high quality and joined up services to the patients of Luton, without risking destabilisation of the transformational projects currently in place which enable successful delivery of a long term community services strategy. There is also a need to maintain a consistent level of service provision as the NHS enters recovery phase post Covid-19.
