The brief

NHSEI seeks Expressions of Interest (EOIs) from providers who have the capability and capacity (to be assessed as part of an eventual procurement/selection process) to deliver services for individuals on the NHS pathway of care for the treatment of gender dysphoria in the Southwest region of England in line with the National Specification for Services: https://www.england.nhs.uk/publication/service-specification-gender-identity-services-for-adults-non-surgical-interventions/ The contract term will potentially be 7 years with an option to extend for a further period at commissioner discretion.

The approximate contract envelope at this stage is £3m per annum, making an estimated contract value for the proposed 7-year period of £21m.

The contract is due to commence no later than April 2023, though this may change.

NHSEI seek to identify any potential providers including NHS Organisations, primary care sector providers such as General Practitioners (GP), Gender Identity Clinics (GIC) and any Voluntary Community and Social Enterprises (VCSE) in the Southwest of England and understand the nature of their services and interest.

To help us understand this, we request that all parties registering interest complete a Market Engagement Questionnaire.

This information will then be used to inform the early development of the NHSEI commissioning strategy and procurement process.

Details on how to register an expression of interest and access the questionnaire are provided below.
