Remote Patient Monitoring and Virtual Wards

Remote Patient Monitoring and virtual wards allow patients to receive hospital-level care and treatment in their own homes or usual place of residence, using digital technology to monitor their condition remotely. Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) is where healthcare providers monitor patients outside the traditional care setting using digital medical devices, such as weight scales, blood pressure monitors, pulse oximeters, and blood glucose meters. A Virtual Ward, also known as Hospital at Home, is a model of care that provides hospital-level treatment to patients in their own homes or care homes, rather than in a hospital. They are staffed by multidisciplinary teams (MDT) using technology for remote monitoring and communication.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 33. The category anchor is Patient-monitoring system (33195000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
