Dear NHS Dental Provider, Mid and South Essex ICB are seeking expressions of interest from NHS Dental Contract holders that hold a contract for Mandatory services, who would be interested in taking part in a Cardio Vascular Disease Dental Assessment Pilot.
The purpose of this pilot is to provide Dental support to patients prior to cardiac surgery who require a dental assessment. We are seeking two practices in Mid and South Essex who will be the primary referral location for patients who are not currently listed with a regular practice. Where necessary Dentists will be required to provide additional treatment to ensure the patients are dentally fit for surgery.
Practices will be remunerated for the assessments as detailed in the service specification.
Full details of this pilot can be found in the attached Service Specification which we ask you to read and additional details provided in the SOP.
If you would like to express an interest, please complete the form via the link : https://forms.office.com/e/0ZyqCwqHLR
