EMPHN-E036 - Psychiatric Consultation and Advice Service

Eastern Melbourne PHN (EMPHN) invites Tender Responses from suitably qualified tenderers for the provision of the Psychiatric Consultation and Advice Service in accordance with the requirements of this Request for Tender (RFT).

EMPHN's analysis and consultation with stakeholders identified a need for better access to specialist psychiatric advice, particularly for general practitioners and contracted providers.

Consultation with LHN's also found the need for non-urgent clients to be managed more efficiently in primary care.

EMPHN is seeking responses from the market to provide psychiatric consultation and advice services for 24 months from December 2018.

The tender specifications aim to address barriers to GPs accessing the service which were identified in a review of the pilot Psychiatric Secondary Consultation Service commissioned by EMPHN in 2017-2018.

The service aims to provide timely mental health and psychiatric advice to general practitioners and community mental health services commissioned by EMPHN, improving treatment and services for people in a community setting.
