Brisbane North PHN (the PHN) is inviting tenders from eligible organisations to deliver the Redcliffe Medicare Mental Health Centre from 1 July 2025.

Medicare Mental Health Centres provide a welcoming, low stigma, soft entry point to engagement, assessment and treatment (or warm referral) for people who may be experiencing distress or crisis, including people with conditions too complex for many current primary care services. These Centres are also intended to offer immediate, short, and medium-term episodes of care, access to digital mental health platforms and service navigation to connect people to ongoing services.

Brisbane North PHN will fund an organisation to deliver the Redcliffe Medicare Mental Health Centre.

All required documentation is included to this tender notice.

An online sector briefing session will be held for anyone interested in tendering for this service. The session will provide a summary of the Redcliffe Medicare Mental Health Centre; an outline of the tender process and relevant dates; and an opportunity to ask questions.

The online sector briefing is scheduled for 3.00pm (AEST) on Thursday 24th October 2024. Please use the link on page 12 of the Invitation to Tender to join via Teams. Attendance at the sector briefing is not mandatory. A summary of questions and answers from the briefing will be made available in the online forum.

Tender enquiries should be directed to the online forum.

Late submissions will not be accepted. All responses must be made by online submission. Any response made by any other means (email, fax, post or in person) will not be considered.
