    "description": "Pre-market engagement for a potential framework agreement to be awarded under the Provider Selection Regime for the delivery of all age continuing care services.\nCountess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust Commercial Procurement Services seeks to engage with providers with a view to developing a framework agreement for the delivery of all age continuing care services under the Provider Selection Regime and Provider Selection Regime (Wales), together the PSR. Framework agreements are defined in Regulation 16 of the PSR.\nAll Age Continuing Care (AACC) is a collective term for services provided by the NHS to meet patients' ongoing care needs.

The AACC services provided under this framework will support Contracting Authorities to meet targets set at a national and local level, and achieve compliance with the following national frameworks (and any future related frameworks):\n•\tNational Framework for Continuing Healthcare and NHS Funded Care \n•\tYoung People's Continuing Care National Framework\nThe purpose of this pre-market engagement notice is to invite providers to help us to develop a framework agreement service specification and tender documentation.\nProviders participating in this pre-market engagement are not guaranteed to receive either an Invitation to Tender (if Invitations to Tender are issued), or a place on any framework agreement which may be awarded following an Invitation to Tender.\nPlease email coch.cps@nhs.net to express interest in taking part in this pre-market engagement process.
