The Administrator will be expected to manage the Private Medical Benefit on behalf of TfL, including assessing claims and paying treatment costs. The scheme is currently financed via a trust with c. 7,100 employees and their eligible dependants. TfL does not guarantee any minimum number of Scheme Members or volume of activity under the contract. The administration service is of critical importance to TfL.

TfL is seeking an Administrator that can effectivley procure and manage medical treatment spend while supporting positive member outcomes. The selected provider should be able to demonstrate robust cost control capabilities and experience of managing claims spend through appropriate treatment pathways. This includes the use of mechanisms such as direct access to musculoskeletal services and open referral networks, which form part of the benefit design and help deliver an effective claims journey whilst controlling costs. Bidders must also demonstrate their ability to manage the implementation and transition of the scheme effectively, ensuring continuity of service and minimal disruption to TfL and Scheme Members.
