What is being bought

The service is available to patients aged 18 and over with a registered GP in the SNEE area. This service sits within the stroke and neuro rehabilitation suite of services to help support those who are suffering the affects of a stroke. Comprehensive Support for Stroke Survivors and Carers: • Extends support from the acute stroke unit to one year post-stroke, or longer based on patient needs. • Provides a single point of contact for stroke survivors and carers to navigate the health and social care system effectively. • Includes independent needs assessments and ongoing support for patients and carers. Improved Health Outcomes: • Maximises rehabilitation potential for stroke survivors. • Promotes education to prevent stroke recurrence and manage complications like urinary tract infections, constipation, and falls. • Supports lifestyle changes to reduce risk factors such as smoking and obesity. Emotional and Social Support: • Enhances emotional recovery and confidence for stroke survivors. • Establishes long-term support groups for ongoing community engagement. Cost Efficiency for Healthcare System: • Reduced reliance on GP services by stroke survivors who receive proper support. • Research indicates cost pressures of £48K per year per patient if rehabilitation potential is not maximised. Data Collection for Future Service Improvement: • A fully functional outcomes framework monitors progress and collects cross-organisational data for future developments. Alignment with NHS Long Term Plan: • Supports higher intensity rehabilitation models, ensuring better outcomes for stroke survivors and promoting equity across healthcare systems.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 85. The category anchor is Health services (85100000); 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
Market: CPV division 8538,3711 median · 19.7 average (22,930 of 38,371 with a bid count)1.8 average (24,591 of 38,371 with named award suppliers)10 comparable price pairs

“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.
