NHS Health Checks 2027
Leicestershire County Council
Scope as published
NHS Health Checks is jointly commissioned by Leicestershire County Council and Rutland County Council (the Councils). The service is currently provided by GP practices that are either independent or part of a Federation. NHS Health Check programme is a statutory public health service mandated under the Health and Social Care Act 2012. Local authorities have a legal duty to offer Health Checks to eligible residents aged 40-74 to help prevent cardiovascular disease, diabetes, kidney disease, and stroke. The programme supports early detection and lifestyle interventions, reducing long-term health risks and improving population health outcomes. This contract ensures delivery of the service across Leicestershire and Rutland through primary care providers. The agreed standard fee is £25.20 per Health Check, which reflects national benchmarking and covers clinical time, equipment, and administrative costs. Based on an anticipated annual volume of approximately 22,000 checks, the contract value is calculated to ensure statutory compliance, service continuity, and cost-effectiveness. The Councils invites Expressions of Interest (EoI) for bidders to provide Health Checks. Under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 (PSR), the Councils will be following Direct Award Process B in accordance with these regulations. Bidders must complete an EoI to indicate their interest and demonstrate they meet all the standards required to deliver Health Checks. Providers who can demonstrate they have the required standards will be added to a list of approved providers eligible to provide the service. The EoI overview and any other documentations issued to bidders will need to be completed online via the Council's new procurement portal (Panacea).
