South East London Integrated Care Board (SEL ICB) Lewisham Borough are seeking to procure 14 Intermediate Care Beds based within the London Borough of Lewisham. The main service outcome will be to deliver a 14 bed based Intermediate Care bedded rehabilitation and reablement unit in Lewisham, providing nursing and HCA support element to the service to people who are medically optimised at the point of discharge but still requiring nursing due to the acuity of their clinical presentation. The provider will operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and 365 days of the year and ensure there is adequate staff to support patients in the beds. The maximum length of stay in these rehab beds is six weeks, during which time the service aims to improve the patient's functionality and physical ability. Anticipated service outcomes include a measurable improvement in patient functionality and reducing the risk of an avoidable hospital admission. To assist the Commissioners with testing its assumptions and proposed service requirements, a market engagement event will take place on Friday 13th December 2024 to explore the market's feedback on the following areas: • outline of service requirements and KPI's • timescales for procurement and mobilisation of the new contract • proposed contract duration and financial model Intermediate Care Bed Market Engagement Event Information The Authority plans to hold an online interactive engagement event on Friday 13 December 2024 from 11.00am - 1.00pm via MS Teams. Number of attendees: Maximum of 2 people per organisation Background Intermediate care is a short-term intervention to preserve the independence of people who might otherwise face unnecessarily prolonged hospital stays or inappropriate admission to hospital. Bed-based intermediate care aims to prevent unnecessary admissions to acute hospitals and premature admissions to long-term care, and to support timely discharge from hospital. For most people, interventions last up to 6 weeks. The indicative maximum financial envelope for this procurement will be £989,000 per annum. SEL ICB however would expect to incentivise bids below this amount through a scoring methodology applied. The contract will have an initial term of 3 years, with the possibility of extending the term up to a further 2 years beyond the initial contracted duration. This will be subject to satisfactory performance and by mutual agreement between the Commissioners and the Provider. Additional information: The NHS London Commercial Hub (LCH), hosted by NHS North East London ICB is managing this Market Engagement process on behalf of NHS England (London Region). The engagement event will now be held online via MS Team (previously it was being held in-person).
