The Contracting Authority intends to undertake a targeted lung cancer screening programme, whereby participants are selected from a local population at high risk of lung cancer, with a low dose CT scan (LDCT) offered to eligible subjects. Modelled on the Manchester-Macmillan Partnership Lung Health Check Pilot (undertaken in 2010), the programme will be run as a pilot clinical trial, supported by an EU4Health Solace grant. The programme will be overseen by a 13-person steering committee, comprising representatives from the National Screening Service and the National Cancer Control Programme. Cases identified by the programme will be managed by Beaumont Hospital’s Lung Multi-Disciplinary Team. The successful tenderer will provide a comprehensive, end-to-end targeted lung screening solution, which will involve the successful tenderer assuming responsibility for all aspects of the screening programme, from sending letters of invitation, participant screening, participant CT scan booking (where required) and reporting. The Contracting Authority requires a mobile solution that can undertake proposed lung health checks and subsequent scanning and associated visits (where required) in a non-hospital environment. In this regard, it is envisioned that a Mobile Scanning Unit and associated Mobile Support Unit will be deployed to agreed community locations across the catchment area of the RCSI Hospital Group.
