PHW-DCO-58400 Sexual Health Testing Managed Service For PHW
Authority: Public Health Wales NHS Trust (Central government)·Consortium: 2 public authorities
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionPublic Health Wales has a network of microbiology laboratories across Wales which provide diagnostic microbiology services to Health Boards as well as surveillance activities for the protection of Public Health.
Sexual Health screening in Wales was rationalised in 2011 with testing provided from three sites: UHW / Imperial Park Unit 5 (IP5) in Newport, Ysbyty Glan Clywd in Rhyl, and Singelton Hospital in Swansea. A Managed Service Contract (MSC) was put in place in 2013 and PHW plan to continue this regional approach and provide analysis of sexual health markers and related testing from the three sites with support and clinical input from Welsh Specialist Virology Centre, Cardiff
This is a short term extension of an existing Managed Service for UHW / Imperial Park Unit 5 (IP5) in Newport whilst a full procurement is conducted.
