NHS Kent and Medway Integrated Care Board (the commissioner) intends to undertake a procurement process for a comprehensive Adult Autism Service (Care Pathway).

The purpose of this service is to provide safe and effective range of support and interventions for autistic adults as part of the wider support offer from the Kent and Medway Integrated Care System.

The service pathway will comprise 4 pillars of support; Self Directed Support, Supported Self Help, Professional Support, Intensive Support. The pathway will incorporate existing service provision for autistic adults (that may be subject to variation as part of the new service pathway) and new service elements as part of the pillar of professional support.

The commissioner has published this Prior Information Notice to support market engagement only at this stage.
