Totally Urgent Care awarded contract extension worth c.GBP13
million p.a. to provide national contingency support for NHS
111
Totally plc (AIM: TLY), a leading provider of frontline
healthcare services, corporate fitness and wellbeing services
across the UK and Ireland, is pleased to announce it has been
awarded a contract extension by NHS England to provide national NHS
111 contingency services for a further year.
The contract, awarded to Vocare Limited ("Vocare"), part of
Totally Urgent Care, will run for 12 months from 16 February 2024
at a value of c.GBP13 million per annum.
NHS England originally commissioned this support to provide
additional call handling and clinical capacity to help to alleviate
pressures on local NHS 111 services. The original 12-month contract
was announced on 16 January 2023 and was for c.GBP10 million per
annum. The extension increases the level of support to be provided
and reflects the ongoing demand for NHS 111. NHS 111 provides an
essential service to the UK population, offering support as
wide-reaching as over-the-telephone healthcare advice, to access to
urgent and emergency care.
Wendy Lawrence, CEO of Totally, said: "Totally has significant
experience in providing quality, resilient and responsive NHS 111
services. To date we have answered almost half a million calls as
part of the NHS England's National Resilience programme. These
calls would otherwise have gone unanswered leaving those seeking to
access care without the support they needed. As demand has
increased, we have responded, increasing capacity to ensure that
calls to NHS 111 across the country are not abandoned.
The extension of this contract for a further year means that
Totally continues to be a core partner in the delivery of NHS 111
services until February 2025."
Directorate Changes Update
Further to the announcement on 28 November 2023 the Company also
confirms that Simon Stilwell, who joined the Board as a
Non-Executive Director and Chairman Designate on 28 November 2023,
became the Company's Non-Executive Chairman with effect from 1
January 2024.
