Patient Transport Services are normally commissioned at clinical commissioning group (CCG) level. CCGs control their own budgets and hold their own contracts. Information on individual CCG contracts is not collected centrally.

The contracts with Coperforma are held by the relevant CCG as is the value of the contract. There are no central records.
