Provision of Dental Services - Market Engagement Event
Descriptions
The Birmingham Dental Hospital along with key regional and national stakeholders have recognised that the Covid-19 pandemic has created complex challenges for all dental services across the West Midlands and the country. The suspension of routine dental services from March 2020 has contributed in some instances to patients in the general population, developing more acute dental problems. In addition to this, there are patients who have had their treatment suspended partway through treatment plans contributing to a substantial backlog of patients awaiting dental care along with other patients waiting for their first initial assessment. A significant number of patients are now waiting more than 52 weeks for treatment with a growing number waiting more than 104 weeks. This is of serious concern for the NHS and it recognised that an innovative approach is required to address treatment backlog challenges. The purpose of this notice is to notify the market of the Dental Hospital's intention to undertake pre-procurement market engagement prior to commencing procurement activity to identify suitably qualified Suppliers the Trust can sub-contract to provide Level 2 and 3 Endodontic treatment to patients in the Midlands. The Market Engagement Event will consist of an online presentation delivered by the Trust, detailing its high-level requirements, and explaining how potential Suppliers may ready themselves for any procurement process that may follow. Information will also be available on the procurement process and timetable, with an open Q&A session for Suppliers to raise any questions. This will be held online on Thursday 11th November 2021 at 1800. Interested suppliers should email sharon.appleby@nhs.net to express their interest and receive details of the event.
