Overview

Future Procurement Opportunity - Community Referred Radiology - Health New Zealand | Te Whatu Ora

Health New Zealand | Te Whatu Ora has commenced the Community Referred Radiology (CRR) programme which is a strategic initiative aimed at improving access to diagnostic imaging services across New Zealand. The programme seeks to address existing disparities in radiology service availability and enhance the quality of care provided in community settings.
Key objectives of the first phase of the CRR programme includes:
• Establishing nationally uniform referral criteria;
• Creating regional CRR triage hubs; and
• Establishing CRR contracts across New Zealand.
An initial stocktake report is being completed covering the current CRR environment which will cover:
• Assessment of current arrangements and funding mechanisms for community radiology services.
• Identification of regional disparities and funding inconsistencies.
• Development of a procurement approach for contracting CRR services.
Decisions around the final procurement approach will be made in the next few months.
Providers interested in the provision of radiology services under the CRR programme are encouraged to register their interest. Health NZ is expecting only short email replies to this FPO especially as no selection is being made in this phase of the project. As a minimum, contact details only need to be provided.
All registered providers will receive invitations to any briefings or discussions as appropriate. Additionally, you will be invited to participate in any resulting procurement process. Note that no provider will be disqualified from participating in any future open procurement approach for CRR if they do not respond to the FPO.
Additional information may be made available on the Health NZ website and through GETS from time to time.
To indicate your interest in being part of this process, please email contact details to harry.lotz@tewhatuora.govt.nz
