The framework is divided into three lots: Lot 1 - Discharge to Assess Services (assessment for longer term care and support), Lot 2 - Third party brokerage (dedicated support and brokerage to reduce delayed transfers), and Lot 3 - Medical Care at Home (secondary care at home or virtual ward).
The framework excludes mental health problems as the primary issue and paediatrics.
The contract value is £600,000,000.
