I am trying to establish some information regarding Non-emergency Patient Transport Services (NEPTS) and the costs to each NHS Trust. Can you therefore help by providing me with the following information:
1. Do you outsource your NEPTS work to private sector? No, we have a contract with West Midlands Ambulance Service.
2. If you do outsource, when is your initial contract term due and can you tell me the maximum term granted for these contracts?
Not applicable
3. What is the annual value of your NEPTS contract?
£2.9M
4. Do you have plans to join with any other Trusts as part of your procurement?
The procurement process is withBirmingham Cross City CCG, and includes University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust and Birmingham Women’s Hospital Foundation Trust.
