Tender: NHS Health Checks Community Outreach for Adults 40–74 — Stoke-on-Trent

About

Stoke-on-Trent is seeking Providers to deliver NHS Health Checks in non-healthcare, community settings as part of the statutory NHS Health Check programme for adults aged 40–74 (offered every five years) who do not have a diagnosis of heart disease, kidney disease, stroke, or type 2 diabetes. Providers will host approximately 30 community events across the city per year and deliver around 3,000 health checks annually; each check involves collecting height, weight, smoking history, physical activity, blood pressure and arranging a cholesterol blood test. Providers must maintain their own record system and complete an agreed data template to share with the Locality Authority and the individual’s registered general practice, demonstrate strong knowledge of referral pathways, show the ability to build or use community relationships to reach low-coverage or high-need areas, use flexible invitation and delivery approaches to boost uptake, and follow up individuals needing lifestyle interventions. Payment will be by a hybrid method (a lump-sum set-up cost per event/venue plus payment by delivery) and the opportunity is being tendered under the Provider Selection Regime 2023.
