GP Antenatal Shared Care (ANSC) Program Process Evaluation

Central and Eastern Sydney PHN (CESPHN) are requesting proposals for a Process Evaluation of the GP Antenatal Shared Care (ANSC) Program.

CESPHN works in partnership with South Eastern Sydney Local Health District (SESLHD) and Sydney Local Health District (SLHD) to deliver three GP ANSC Programs at the following public hospitals

i. RPA Women and Babies and Canterbury Hospital

ii. Royal Hospital for Women

iii. St George Hospital and Sutherland Hospital

Each GP ANSC Program operates independently within its own defined and endorsed clinical policies and protocols and is guided by a separate Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between CESPHN and the participating hospitals.

The GP ANSC Program is jointly administered by CESPHN and the participating hospitals, with each hospital providing clinical support to ANSC GPs, and CESPHN undertaking non-clinical activities.

The purpose of this process evaluation is to:

i. Contextualise the GP ANSC Program as a model of antenatal care within the CESPHN region

ii. Examine other service approaches that support the delivery of GP ANSC

iii. Identify how CESPHN can continue to support partners in the delivery of the GP ANSC Program

iv. Inform decisions about potential program redesign and future program implementation.

Central and Eastern Sydney PHN (CESPHN), invites eligible applicants to apply for GP Antenatal Shared Care (ANSC) Program Process Evaluation.

Please read and familiarise yourself with this Request for Proposal (RFP) Application Guidelines (PART A) prior to completing this application form.

The application should capture in Part C all the relevant financial components that are in scope for funding.
