Patient Transport Engagement Outcome

A few months ago we sent Accord members information about ‘Keeping the Wheels in Motion’ our engagement about the future of non-emergency Patient Transport Services.  We wanted to know what you thought to help inform the specification for Patient transport Services which are currently being re-commissioned.   People had a lot to say and the findings from this engagement have been put into a report which includes a number of recommendations for commissioners to consider.

What happens next?

North and North East Lincolnshire CCG’s have developed a specification for these services and started the procurement process.  The Engagement report has been included in the Invitation to Tender documents for potential providers to take into account when developing their proposals.

Accord members have given us a wealth of information and ideas about the things people need that support them to access health services. This insight is valuable and means we can keep patients and their carers at the centre as we plan services for the future.

We will provide more updates about what people told us in this engagement and what we are going to do about it  over the next few months through Accord.

Thank you
