The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) has extended the deadline for its Call for Evidence on Pathology Managed Service Contracts to 19th September 2025, allowing members more time to take advantage of this vital opportunity for our industry to shape the future of pathology procurement in the NHS.
Managed service contracts are central to how pathology services operate. The decisions made now will influence innovation adoption, value-based procurement, and the role of suppliers for years to come. Our input, with the full weight of our industry’s expertise behind us, will be crucial in defining the framework.
By contributing to this consultation, you can help ensure that future contracts support flexibility, reward innovation, and deliver sustainable, high-quality services for patients.
Make sure to submit your response by 19th September 2025 via the DHSC portal.
Please contact Beth.Loudon@BIVDA.org.uk if you have any further questions.
