Description

Since 2019 there has been significant national and local strategic changes that impacted on non-clinical care models in Dorset, of which the Supported Self Management Service (SSMS) plays a key part. 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 SSMS 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 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/Welcome Atamis 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.
