Norway – Miscellaneous health services – Procurement of services within hand surgery - Helse Vest RHF

In accordance with the Specialist Health Services Act §2-1 a, Helse Vest shall ensure that patients resilende in the Western Health Region are offered specialist health services. These services are provided partly through separate health companies and partly through contracts with private providers of specialist health services. Helse Vest RHF would like to enter into a contract for operative treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome and dupuytren's contracture from a private tenderer. Helse Vest RHF undertakes this procurement primarily to relieve Helse Stavanger HF and reduce the accumulated waiting times in the health company. The enquiry is therefore primarily for patients resilring in the whole region west. The service shall be carried out in Helse Stavanger ́s admission area.
