Short description
NHS Arden & Greater East Midlands Commissioning Support Unit (NHS AGEM CSU) on behalf of NHS Nottingham and Nottinghamshire ICB are inviting suitably qualified providers to deliver Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) services for the population of NHS Nottingham and Nottinghamshire.
With the exit of our local NHS provider from the provision of IAPT services, commissioners will be looking for a single solution for the future provision across the newly formed ICB patch for a period of 5 years. That single solution may be a single provider option, a lead provider or a collaboration which needs to deliver services in line with National guidance as the IAPT programme remains high on the political agenda with ICBs being performance managed on access and recovery targets at regional and national level.
