NHS South Yorkshire Awards General Practitioners

The NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board has recently awarded a contract for the provision of general practitioner services, specifically targeted towards patients in Barnsley. The contract, which is managed under the health care services Provider Selection Regime Regulation 2023, was confirmed in a direct award process. The awarded contractor is Burleigh Medical Centre GP, located on Burleigh Street in Barnsley.

This contract is particularly significant as it aims to integrate enhanced local services into the existing primary care framework, ensuring that the Barnsley population receives the tailored healthcare services they require.
