** PREVIEW NOTICE, please check Find a Tender for full details. ** Since 2019 there has been significant national and local strategic changes that impacted on non-clinical care models in Dorset, of which the SSMS plays a key part. These include publication of the NHSE Long Term Plan (2019), which lead to the introduction of Additional Roles Reimbursement Scheme (ARRS) and more recently the Fuller Report (2022). NHS Dorset is looking to engage with qualified providers, including local voluntary organisation alliances or consortia, to help inform its future commissioning decisions, particularly on how the integration of non-clinical services can help achieve key objectives in streamlining access to care and advice, the potential for providing more proactive, personalised care supported through a neighbourhood Integrated Team and helping people to stay well for longer. This market engagement exercise will help ensure future commissioning strategies recognise the need to put people and place at the centre; co-creating services that people really need to support them to live healthy and happy lives.The Authority is therefore seeking expressions of interest from qualified providers to participate in a market engagement events beginning in February 2023 (subject to final confirmation).This exercise will help improve the Authorities' understanding of market capabilities, innovation and any barriers to delivering new commissioned services.To register for this event, participants will need to register as a supplier on the Authorities health e-commerce system called Atamis https://health-family.force.com/s/WelcomeAtamis is the system chosen by The Department for Health and Social Care and many organisations across the NHS and wider health system to manage tendering and contract management activity.Registration on the system is only required once to allow you to view your existing contracts with NHS Dorset and any other contracting authorities on the Health Family e-Commercial system, as well as gain access to any new opportunities.If you want to create a new registration, there is guidance on the Atamis landing page or contact the Atamis helpdesk using the following details:Phone: 0800 9956035E-mail: support-health@atamis.co.ukPlease email ian.clarke@nhsdorset.nhs.uk to confirm your expression of interest in participating in the event as well as confirming your Atamis registration.
