About

NEL Commissioning Support Unit awarded a contract to Community Health and Eyecare Ltd for the delivery of a Community Ophthalmology Service in Hertfordshire.

The service provides a community consultant-led Ophthalmology service to diagnose and treat a range of Ophthalmology conditions, manage relevant follow-up activity within the service, and discharge patients back to their GP or refer onward to secondary care where necessary.

The service aims to provide timely access to diagnostics and treatment, offering a 'one-stop' service where possible and appropriate, and is delivered by appropriately trained and accredited clinicians, which may include GPwSIs, Optometrists, Orthoptists, Ophthalmology Staff Grade Doctors, and Ophthalmology Consultants.

The contract is for three years, commencing on 1 November 2018, with a value of £4,611,000.

***Insight: This award reflects the ongoing shift of routine ophthalmology care from acute hospitals to community settings, a model designed to reduce waiting times and ease pressure on secondary care.

Contracts of this type are typically won by specialist community providers that can assemble multidisciplinary clinical teams and demonstrate robust governance and accreditation."
