Published requirement description

NHS South East London Integrated Care Board (SEL ICB) is seeking to commission a Winter Access Hubs Service to provide additional same-day primary care capacity for Bromley residents during periods of seasonal demand and winter system pressures.

The service will deliver timely assessment and treatment for patients requiring urgent same-day primary care access through a geographically distributed network of hub locations across Bromley.

•Provision of additional same-day GP-led capacity for winter illness and other urgent primary care presentations.

•Delivery of predominantly face-to-face consultations through convenient hub locations across the borough.

•Direct booking and referral pathways from General Practice, NHS 111 and Urgent Treatment Centres.

•Integration with community pharmacy, self-referral pathways and wider neighbourhood services to ensure patients receive care in the most appropriate setting.

•Flexible deployment of capacity in response to emerging winter demand and system pressures.
