  "description": "This contract is awarded via Direct Award Process C, in accordance with The Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 (PSR).\nThe authority confirms the provider delivered the prior contract to a consistently high standard and no material changes have been made in the renewed contracting arrangement. \nAgainst the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) Key Criteria, Diagnostic Ultrasound Service has demonstrated expertise and is anticipated to continue doing so.  Evidence of current service delivery against the PSR Key Criteria and the breakdown of Key Criteria weighting in relation to this service for the purposes of awarding a contract under Direct Award C is detailed below:  \nImproving access, reducing health inequalities and facilitating choice 30%\nThe weighting reflects the importance to Surrey and Sussex ICB that the provider delivers a service that has equitable access to all appropriate people and that it seeks to reduce health inequalities in line with the national guidance.\nThe community setting of the service will continue to provide diagnostics closer to a patient's home. \nThe provider works in collaboration with partners to identify inequalities and actively seek to reduce them through equity of service and provision and patient choice.\nIntegration, collaboration and service sustainability 25%\nThe service provides timely access closer to where people live in the community, enabling early detection and monitoring of health conditions. Interfaces with services to which onward referrals may be required and with primary care (GPs) is fully established.  As a community-based service, the service provides sustainability to the local health system. \nQuality and innovation 20%\nDUS demonstrates commitments to quality and innovation through regulatory accreditations (CQC, patient safety initiatives (PSIRF and has consistently delivered a safe, high-quality and person-centred service. \nValue 15%\nThis provider demonstrates an ability to utilise the funding to maximise the resources in the provision of community-based ultrasound. Continuing to do so demonstrates value to the local health system, improving the efficiency of local diagnostics and providing value to the local population, the latter of which is also evidenced by way of satisfaction with the accessible service.\nSocial value 10%\nThis weighting recognises the potential impact the service has to the wider health system across broader social, economic and environmental areas in the community. The service impacts local employment and supports the reduction of travel costs for patients by offering diagnostics in convenient settings.\nWhilst this has not scored as highly as other criteria it is important the provider has evidenced a commitment to social value and recognise the impact it has on the local health system and more broadly the local community.\nDetails of the award decision makers:\nSurrey and Sussex ICB Commissioning Group recommendation - 12th May 2026 \nSurrey and Sussex ICB Executive Committee approval - May 2026\nNo identified conflicts of interest.",
