LONDON (ShareCast) - (ShareCast News) - London based holding company Totally announced on Wednesday it had secured a contract that would see it provide dermatological services for Castle Point, Rochford, and Southend clinical commissioning groups (CCGs) in the UK via its subsidiary About Health.
The contract was won as part of a combined bid with Basildon and Thurrock University Hospitals, the NHS Foundation Trust, and GP Healthcare Alliance, a federation of general practitioners spreading across the Castle Point CCG area.

Generating £331,750 per year for About Health, the contract was slated to last four years with an option to extend a further 12 months with the provisional commencement date set in December 2017.

Wendy Lawrence, Totally's chief executive officer, said, "After many years of working in collaboration with secondary care and primary care providers, this contract represents the first opportunity to enter into a formal partnership with such providers to deliver a truly integrated service to CCGs. It is an exciting opportunity to deliver better, more cohesive services and opens up new opportunities for About Health to work in partnerships with other NHS Trusts and roll this model out in other parts of the UK."

As of 1615 BST, shares had moved ahead 0.25% to 48.12p.
