    East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust · 5 Oct 2026 · HASTINGS INTEGRATED FAMILY HEALTHCARE GP FEDERATION · Official notice

    Rationale: This contract is being awarded under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 using Direct Award Process C.

The Trust has concluded that the provider is delivering the existing service to a satisfactory standard and is likely to continue to satisfy the requirements of the proposed contract. The proposed contractual arrangements are not changing considerably from the existing contract and the service model will remain substantially unchanged.
