Community hearing aids service for age-related hearing loss - C378303

NHS Sussex has awarded this contract to suitably qualified and experienced providers for the delivery of community-based hearing aid services for adults aged 55 and over. Eligible providers have been accredited to deliver services as part of an AQP multi-provider model. Successful providers have been awarded contracts via Provider Selection Regime Direct Award Process B. No minimum activity is guaranteed for accredited providers - each provider's participation depends on patient choice and referral volume. Individual Provider contracts will be zero value and any payments made will be based on activity performed. The annual service value total for all current AQP Providers (23/24 outturn) was approx £6.5m. So, for 7 years + 3 year option = £65,000,000.
