Lincolnshire Community Health Services (LCHS) currently provide primary medical services at The Sidings Medical Practice in Boston under a caretaking contract, which is due to end on the 30 June 2022. Lincolnshire Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) will undertake a full procurement to find a provider for a new contract starting on 1 July 2022, to ensure the continuation of primary medical services within the area. Patients should be reassured that there will be no changes to the surgery opening hours and this process is to ensure services continue to be provided from The Sidings Medical Practice.

As part of the procurement, the CCG will engage with patients, their families and carers to find out their views, before a full procurement process to find a provider commences.
