NHS West Kent Dermatology Service Market Engagement Event
NHS West Kent CCG (the Commissioner) is considering commissioning a service to deliver Level 3 and potentially Level 4 Dermatology Services for West Kent patients.
The CCG would like to get potential providers’ views, assess the market appetite, discuss the CCG’s plans with providers to understand capacity and providers’ ability to deliver the service.
The service is expected to undertake a full range of Dermatology treatments.
The CCG is seeking to commission the service with the following objectives: -Deliver a high quality clinical dermatology care that supports patients to live their lives as fully as possible. -Actively helps improve dermatology skills and competencies in primary care more generally. -Supports and educates patients to self-manage their skin conditions and prevent complications.
The service will deliver diagnosis, treatment and management of a range of dermatological conditions across community and secondary care settings.
The service will be consultant led but not exclusively consultant delivered, ensuring joint working across all levels and referrals pathways.
The level 3 service will deal with all skin problems that cannot be managed by a GP or conditions where GPs may need advice such as: -Skin lesions pre malignant or of an uncertain nature. -Suspected BCCs- assessment, excision, onward referral.
The level 4 service will include those conditions that can only be undertaken by secondary care teams and will include the 2ww pathway.
The Commissioner will value views of potential providers at this stage to help shape an innovative specification/model of care for people with skin/hair and nail conditions.
Also to help inform the approach to commissioning the service, ensuring patients are seen by the right person, in the right place at the right time and can move readily between levels of care as necessary.
The Commissioner is supported and advised in this project by South East CSU (the CSU) and its procurement partner NHS Commercial Solutions (NHSCS), which is managing this procurement.
