About

NHS Midlands and Lancashire CSU awarded a contract to Gateshead Health NHS Foundation Trust for the Faecal Immunochemical Testing (FIT) Service for NHS Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin Integrated Care Board.

The service includes both 2 week wait and non 2 week wait activity in line with NICE NG12 guidance, covering the supply of tests, analysis of samples, and communication of results directly to the secondary care service at Shrewsbury and Telford NHS Trust.

The aim is to reduce mortality from bowel cancer for patients registered with a GP in the Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin area by offering FIT to patients who either do not meet the criteria for a referral under a 2WW Cancer pathway but require further investigation, or meet the criteria for urgent suspected lower GI cancer referral.

The awarded contract is for a period of 3 years with the option to extend up to a further 24 months, with a contract go-live date of 01/04/2023 and an estimated annual value of £418,960.00.

NHS Standard Contract Terms and Conditions apply.
