Swansea Bay University Health Board is seeking a provider to deliver NHS Units of Dental Activity (UDAs) to provide high-quality dental care, either by offering additional UDAs to existing full NHS contracts or by supporting the development of a new dental practice under the NHS (General Dental Services Agreement) (Wales) Regulations 2006. Providers applying to increase their current GDS contract value must meet all legal requirements of the GDS contract, have recent demonstrable experience of successful delivery of NHS dental services, and be able to guarantee that additional workforce capacity is available at their practice to deliver any additional contract value awarded. The Health Board also welcomes applications to set up a new dental practice in the Swansea Bay area; a successful new practice would receive a Personal Dental Services (PDS) contract for an initial period of five years, after which the Health Board will review service provision and may issue a General Dental Services (GDS) contract in line with Regulation 21 of the Personal Dental Services Regulations (2006).
