II.2.4) Description of the procurement
The NHS Health Check programme aims to improve the health and wellbeing of adults aged 40-74 years through the promotion of early awareness, assessment, and management of the major risk factors for cardiovascular disease – risk factors that are associated with premature death, disability and health inequalities of residents in Cornwall and Isles of Scilly.
The objectives of the programme are:
1 To promote and improve the early identification and management of the Service Users’ behavioural and physiological risk factors for vascular disease and the other conditions associated with those risk factors
2 To support Service Users to effectively manage and reduce behavioural risks and associated conditions through information, behavioural and evidence based clinical interventions
3 To help reduce inequalities in the distribution and burden of behavioural risks, related conditions and multiple morbidities.
Cornwall Council is utilising the light touch regime to produce an Approved Provider List for a five year period for all GP's registered in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly to provide this service via a pathway to all eligible residents:
The service pathway is made up of four key components below:
• Invitation and Offer
• Risk Assessment
• Communication of Risk
• Risk Management

Section IV: Procedure
IV.1) Description
IV.1.1) Type of procedure
Restricted procedure
IV.1.3) Information about a framework agreement or a dynamic purchasing system
The procurement involves the establishment of a framework agreement with several operators.
Envisaged maximum number of participants to the framework agreement: 60
Justification for any framework agreement duration exceeding 4 years: Cornwall Council aspires to achieve a local take-up rate of 66% of the eligible population having an NHS Health Check once every five years, in line with National targets. Four years would not make sense as it would not allow us to ensure the full programme is completed, at which point we can assess its suitability.
