The specialist GP practices work in partnership with one another and system partners (who provide assistance such as taking patients to their health appointments), hospital Health Inclusion Teams, CLCH, CNWL, Local Authorities, and Public Health.<br/><br/>2) Due to the nature of the health care services the existing providers are the only realistic capable provider for the relevant authority’s specific requirements, therefore direct award process A applies.
