II.2.4) Description of the procurement
The aim of this service is to provide an adult (18+) only ADHD assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and review services across Norfolk, Waveney, Cambridgeshire and Peterborough.<br/>The ICBs both have Adult ADHD Assessment and Treatment offer through local Mental Health Trusts. These are successful small teams. However, with the advent of COVID-19, partnered with an exponential increase in referrals both ICBs need to commission additional services under a Framework to assist with the current wait list and to offer patient choice in line with national guidance / policy. The accreditation framework is anticipated to be for a period of 4 years with the option to extend for up to an additional 2 years however, providers will be reviewed on a regular basis to determine they are still meeting the criteria as set out in the bidding process. Alongside this, further work is happening to look at how we can re-design the service to meet increased demands. This includes a redesign of the ADHD pathway in both systems. Providers delivering to both ICBs can therefore expect changes during the life of the contract in the local treatment and intervention offers and referral, triage, and screening arrangements that they need to adapt and respond to.<br/><br/>There are no finances attached to this Framework as providers will invoice the ICB(s) under the current Right to Choose process – this will be detailed for those providers that join the Framework. This service is based on Tariff paid on activity undertaken. <br/><br/>Assessment on-line £750.<br/>Assessment in person £850.<br/>Titration £400.<br/>Annual review £200.<br/><br/>The service aims to support achieve the following: the ambition is to improve choice for patients seeking access to ADHD assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and review services.<br/><br/>To reduce the current wait times of the locally commissioned ADHD assessments in NWICB and CPIB areas.<br/><br/>That all cases assessed under the Framework, that require medication, are successfully titrated.<br/>That where shared care is accepted patients are returned to Primary care under the shared care protocol and primary care escalations are responded to promptly. In the event of shared care not being an option, the provider would need to undertake prescribing / monitoring and annual reviews.<br/><br/>That ongoing treatment and annual reviews are managed for those not under shard care.<br/>To provide staff that are suitably trained and have appropriate expertise working in the field of ADHD.
