Healthcare services firm secures £66m deal

Totally plc, which provides healthcare services across the UK and Ireland, has secured a contract worth up to £66 million.

Following a full tender process, the NHS South East London Integrated Care Board (ICB) has awarded the contract to Totally subsidiary Greenbrook Healthcare for the provision of two urgent treatment centres.

The contract will start on 1 April and run for five years, with the option to extend by an additional three years.

Wendy Lawrence, chief executive of Totally, which is headquartered in Derby, said: “Our urgent treatment centres aim to prevent avoidable A&E attendances by ensuring that patients are treated in the most appropriate setting, according to their clinical and wellbeing needs.

“This means that NHS emergency service staff can focus on treating those with more serious conditions.

“We continue to work alongside the NHS to deliver quality services to patients, even during times of significant pressure.”
