Contracts for Innovation Cymru - Reducing Missed Appointments and Improving Access to Planned Care

Challenge Overview Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board (CTM UHB) experiences persistently high rates of missed outpatient appointments, with approximately 64,000 appointments missed over the last 12 months. These missed appointments create challenges for patients and services alike, contributing to longer waiting times, underutilised clinical capacity, financial inefficiencies and poorer patient experience. CTM estimates that missed appointments may account for approximately £9.6 million of avoidable lost value each year, representing a significant opportunity to improve both patient access and the use of NHS resources. Evidence suggests that non-attendance is often linked to a range of practical, behavioural, communication and accessibility barriers rather than a simple choice not to attend. These barriers can include challenges associated with appointment communication, transport, geography, caring responsibilities, socioeconomic factors, digital exclusion, health inequalities and service design. Contracts for Innovation Cymru (CfIC) is seeking innovative solutions that help people overcome these barriers, reducing missed appointments whilst improving access to planned care. The challenge is deliberately open and does not prescribe a particular technology, product or service. We welcome ideas from a wide range of sectors and disciplines and encourage applicants to think creatively about how attendance, access and patient experience can be improved. We are seeking innovative approaches that help reduce missed appointments and improve access to planned care. Solutions may address one or more aspects of the challenge, including but not limited to: • Appointment communication and engagement • Accessibility of information • Appointment planning and management • Behavioural approaches that encourage attendance • Identification of individuals at increased risk of non-attendance • Travel and accessibility barriers • Digital tools and services • Community-based support models • Service and pathway redesign • Data-driven approaches to improve attendance and access Applicants are encouraged to consider how different barriers interact and how solutions may support a diverse population with differing needs and circumstances. We are not seeking a predetermined solution and welcome a broad range of innovative approaches. ________________________________________ In Scope We are interested in solutions that can contribute to one or more of the following: • Improving appointment attendance and reducing missed appointments. • Improving access to planned care services. • Appointment communication and engagement. • Accessibility of information and services. • Appointment planning, scheduling and management. • Behavioural approaches that support attendance. • Identification of people at increased risk of non-attendance. • Reducing practical barriers to accessing services. • Data-driven, digital or technology-enabled approaches. • Community-based or service redesign approaches. • Improving equity of access across different populations and geographic settings. • Welsh language, accessibility and inclusive service delivery. Out of Scope We are not seeking projects that: • Focus solely on increasing demand for healthcare services. • Are primarily academic or research studies with no credible route to implementation. • Require extensive fundamental research before development can commence. • Cannot demonstrate a realistic route to adoption within health and care services. • Do not consider affordability, scalability or long-term sustainability. • Rely solely on English-language patient-facing delivery. • Seek to replace appropriate clinical oversight or professional judgement where this remains necessary. ________________________________________ Desired Outcomes Successful solutions should demonstrate potential to deliver measurable improvements in one or more of the following areas. Patients and Citizens • Improved access to planned care servic…

Contracts for Innovation Cymru - Transforming Multi-Agency Safeguarding for High-Risk Domestic Abuse in South Wales

Domestic abuse remains one of the most significant public protection challenges facing South Wales. For people assessed as being at highest risk of serious harm or homicide, timely safeguarding interventions and effective multi-agency coordination can be critical in reducing harm and improving safety outcomes. South Wales Police and its partners currently deliver safeguarding through the Multi-Agency Risk Assessment Conference (MARAC) process. MARAC is a long-established mechanism that brings organisations together to share information, assess risk and coordinate actions for victims experiencing high-risk domestic abuse. It remains one of the most important safeguarding arrangements available to public services and plays a vital role in protecting some of the most vulnerable people in society. However, the current model is under increasing pressure. Across South Wales, more than 5,000 high-risk domestic abuse cases are managed annually through seven separate MARAC arrangements operating across Cardiff, Vale of Glamorgan, Rhondda Cynon Taf, Merthyr Tydfil, Bridgend, Neath Port Talbot and Swansea. Together, these arrangements account for approximately 44% of MARAC demand across Wales. Different governance structures, processes and operating approaches have evolved over time, resulting in variation in delivery, increasing administrative burden and challenges in maintaining consistency across the region. Demand continues to increase whilst cases become more complex. In some areas, approximately 70 cases may be discussed during a single weekly MARAC process, and concerns have been raised regarding delays between referral, discussion and action. National reviews, safeguarding investigations and wider research have highlighted issues relating to fragmented information sharing, inconsistent processes and delays in identifying and responding to escalating risk. South Wales Police, working alongside regional MARAC governance groups, the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner and wider safeguarding partners, has identified an opportunity to explore whether a different approach could deliver faster, more consistent and more effective safeguarding outcomes. The challenge has been developed following significant stakeholder engagement and reflects a shared recognition that future approaches may need to move beyond the traditional meeting-based MARAC model. ________________________________________ The Challenge We are seeking innovative organisations to help South Wales Police and its partners explore how high-risk domestic abuse safeguarding could operate differently in the future. This challenge is intentionally outcome-focused and does not prescribe a specific technology, product type or delivery model. Applicants are encouraged to propose the approach they believe will best address the challenge and demonstrate how their expertise could help develop a more responsive, coordinated and sustainable safeguarding model for South Wales. The challenge is not simply about introducing new technology or digitising existing MARAC meetings. Whilst technology, data and artificial intelligence may form part of the solution, partners have identified the need to explore wider service, governance and operating model redesign. We are interested in organisations capable of helping answer questions such as: • How can risk be identified, prioritised and escalated more effectively? • How can organisations work together more dynamically and efficiently? • How can safeguarding actions be coordinated more effectively across agencies? • How can professionals spend less time managing administration and more time safeguarding vulnerable people? • How can information be shared more effectively whilst maintaining appropriate governance and accountability? • How can future models remain practical, affordable and sustainable? • How can innovation support improved safeguarding outcomes without creating additional complexity? Applicants should not assume that techno…

Contracts for Innovation Cymru - Modernising the Bowel Screening Pathway in Wales

Innovative solutions to improve participant assessment, triage support and progression following a positive FIT result Introduction Bowel cancer is one of the most common cancers in Wales, with over 2,200 new cases diagnosed each year , and early diagnosis remains one of the most important factors in improving patient outcomes. It is more common as people get older, with most cases diagnosed in those over 50. Bowel Screening Wales plays a vital role in identifying people aged 50-74 who might be at increased risk of bowel cancer, through the routine use of an at home stool sample kit, known as Faecal Immunochemical Testing (FIT) . Each year, more than 500,000 people are invited to participate in bowel screening, with around 12,000 participants receiving a positive FIT result and requiring further assessment and investigation. Following a positive FIT result, screening participants are informed to contact the national bowel screening administration team to make a mutually convenient appointment for a nurse-led pre-colonoscopy assessment. This assessment is predominantly undertaken by telephone and uses a standardised assessment form with questions designed to determine an individual's suitability for colonoscopy, identify clinical risks and ensure participants receive the support they need before further investigation. The assessment lasts between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the level of complexity. Appointments are available Monday to Friday, 9am to 4pm, and this is currently the only option available to screening participants. The current process was established when the Bowel Screening Wales programme launched in 2008 and has remained largely unchanged since that time. Whilst the pathway continues to provide a safe and effective means of assessment, the environment in which it operates has changed considerably. Bowel Screening participation has increased, eligibility has expanded, workforce pressures have intensified and public expectations around digital access, communication and convenience have evolved. Bowel Screening Wales is therefore seeking innovative approaches that can support service modernisation, improve participant experience, improve the timeliness of pre-colonoscopy assessments and strengthen the ability of NHS Wales to meet future demand. ________________________________________ The Challenge Current pre-colonoscopy assessment processes remain heavily reliant on manual and telephone-based activity during routine office hours (Mon-Fri. 9-4pm). This can limit access for screening participants (especially those of working age), create pressure on specialist nursing teams, contribute to variation in waiting times and participant experience, and limit opportunities to make better use of participant information resources (i.e. current inability to signpost participants to digital resources and video content). We are seeking innovative solutions that can improve access to timely assessments, provide increased flexibility for participants to undertake an assessment, enables participants to have more control over their engagement with the service, including the possibility of them booking their own appointment slots following assessment. In addition, the innovation should have the ability to enable the screening programme to triage participants for appropriate investigations and stratify individuals for timely interventions based on clinical need following a positive FIT result. The challenge is outcome focused and does not prescribe a specific technology, product type or delivery model. Applicants are encouraged to propose the approach they believe will best address the challenge and demonstrate how their solution could be adapted, developed or enhanced to meet the needs of Bowel Screening Wales. We are not seeking to specify a single solution in advance. The purpose of this challenge is to support the development and demonstration of solutions that can address the underlying service need as described above whils…

Contracts for Innovation Cymru - Ending Abandonment After Stroke

Stroke is one of the leading causes of disability in Wales and affects around 7,000 people each year. While survival rates continue to improve, many people experience a significant reduction in support once they leave hospital at a stage when rehabilitation remains critical to recovery and long-term independence. Around 45% of stroke survivors report feeling abandoned following discharge because they do not receive the support they need to recover well. The impact extends far beyond the individual. Variations in access to rehabilitation, follow-up support and community services can lead to poorer outcomes, increased carer burden, avoidable demand on health and care services, and significant societal and economic costs. Stroke currently costs NHS Wales approximately £220 million per year and the wider Welsh economy approximately £1.63 billion annually. Without intervention, these costs are expected to increase significantly. The challenge has been developed following extensive investigation across Wales involving clinicians, health boards, national leaders, stroke survivors, carers and the Stroke Association. This work has helped define the challenge, identify unmet needs, understand existing service variation and explore the current market landscape. The conclusion is clear: Wales requires innovative, scalable approaches that can strengthen recovery, improve experience, reduce feelings of abandonment and support more equitable outcomes beyond hospital discharge. The challenge aligns with the Welsh Government Quality Statement for Stroke, which places renewed emphasis on rehabilitation, recovery, person-centred care and ensuring that stroke survivors do not feel abandoned during their recovery journey. The Challenge We are seeking innovative solutions that can improve rehabilitation, recovery and long-term support for stroke survivors. Access to rehabilitation and follow-up support varies across Wales. As a result, outcomes can depend too heavily on where a person lives rather than on their clinical need. This challenge seeks innovative approaches that can improve equity of access and help ensure people can receive high-quality rehabilitation and recovery support regardless of geography, including those living in rural, remote, underserved and seldom heard communities across Wales. The challenge is outcome-focused and does not prescribe a specific technology, product type or delivery model. Applicants are encouraged to propose the approach they believe will best address the challenge and demonstrate how their solution could be adapted, developed or enhanced to meet the needs of NHS Wales and stroke survivors. We are not seeking to specify a single solution in advance. The purpose of this challenge is to support the development, demonstration and evaluation of innovative approaches that can improve recovery, reduce feelings of abandonment and create foundations for sustainable improvement across Wales. Particular consideration should be given to how solutions can improve access to rehabilitation and recovery support for people who may face barriers associated with geography, transport, service availability, digital exclusion, workforce capacity or being within a seldom-heard group. The challenge is not simply about providing more therapy. We are interested in approaches that enable personalised, continuous and motivating rehabilitation and self-management support across home, community and outpatient settings whilst supporting better experiences and outcomes for stroke survivors. This challenge is being delivered as a Phase 2 Contracts for Innovation competition. In contrast to a Phase 1 competition, focusing on feasibility, we are seeking organisations with existing technologies, products, platforms, services or rehabilitation approaches that require adaptation, enhancement, configuration or further development to address the identified needs of stroke survivors, carers and rehabilitation services across Wales. This challenge f…
