Approach to market date is 01 March 2019.May 2016 the C&M five year cross sector strategy to tackle high BP “Saving lives: Reducing the pressure” was launched.

It aims to relieve the pressure on health and social care services by empowering healthier lifestyles and self-care. One key aim of the C&M BP Strategy is to develop innovative approaches to testing and treatment of new high blood pressure cases by working closely with key partners. It aims to shift the detection of raised BP into the community so that people can be managed in alternative venues, freeing clinical space for higher risk patients.This is a potential opportunity from the government, and the pipeline gives advance notice of an opportunity that might be offered by the public sector in the future – allowing potential suppliers to plan accordingly. When a public sector organisation publishes a pipeline notice, it does not necessarily mean that an opportunity will be offered in the future.For more information contact: Old Market House, 4th Floor, West Wing, Hamilton Street, Birkenhead, CH41 5AL, United Kingdom.
