West Yorkshire Patient Transport Services

The current Non-Emergency Patient Transport Service (NEPTS) is provided by Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust (YAS) across West Yorkshire. The current service ends on the 31st March 2024. The service is provided to the following ‘places’ in West Yorkshire: Bradford District & Craven, Calderdale, Kirklees, Leeds and Wakefield District. This notice is to advise the intention to directly award a contract to YAS to continue the provision of service with a direct award of an 18-months contract. The extension is to allow the Commissioners to review and remodel the service specification that will complement the delivery and sustainability of the service currently commissioned and in order to clearly articulate future requirements in light of changes to commissioning infrastructure. This notice completes a process that commenced prior to 1st January 2024 under PCR and NHS Procurement, Patient Choice & Competition Regulations.
