The national provider company, Healthcare Together, that has been formed with NPA and PSNC members, and the support of CCA and AIMp, has launched a tender scanning service.

LPCs will now automatically receive notification of relevant tenders in their region and LPC supported local provider companies can register to receive the alerts.

The details of the service, which is free of charge to LPCs and local provider companies, are set out in the Healthcare Together prospectus.

The prospectus also includes details of other services offer by Healthcare Together such as guidance on setting up a local provider company, tender writing and policy document templates.

The prospectus and further information about the new company will be available on the Healthcare Together website which is being launched later this week.
