Motivation for the single tender award concerning the assignment for SMA data collection and registration
Since 1 June 2022, the National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM) has integrated a screening for Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) into the heel prick screening. To evaluate the effectiveness of this screening and potentially adjust it, structured data collection and registration are necessary. The collected data must also monitor the (long-term) effects of the limited treatment methods for SMA. The assignment focuses on establishing a reliable, secure, and privacy-compliant data infrastructure, including data collection protocols, registration software, quality control, and reporting mechanisms. The procurement falls under an informal procedure without publication, aimed at a limited number of specialized service providers with experience in medical data management, privacy regulations (AVG, GDPR), and working with national health information systems.

As of 1 June 2022, screening for the condition Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) has commenced within the heel prick screening. To have all necessary information available for evaluation as recommended by the Health Council, data collection and registration must take place. The purpose of the data collection and registration is to evaluate and, if necessary, adjust or discontinue the SMA screening. The same data can also be used to evaluate the (long-term) effects of SMA treatment; the treatment methods have, for instance, been available for at most only a few years.
