UNSPSC 42171616: Mobile medical services ambulance cot accessories

Accessories included with mobile medical service ambulance cots

UNSPSC 42171616 Mobile medical services ambulance cot accessories is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure emergency medical equipment, supplies, and related consumables for EMS operations—a scope that recent solicitations reveal extends well beyond the nominal "cot accessories" framing to encompass a broad range of critical-care devices, pharmaceuticals, diagnostic equipment, and specialized transport capabilities. The code is used by counties, municipalities, and fire departments acquiring everything from automated chest compression systems and intraosseous infusion devices to ventilators, EMS pharmaceuticals, protective equipment, and inventory management platforms. Issuing bodies span Florida counties (Escambia, Sarasota, Collier, Marion, Orange County), Texas jurisdictions (Williamson County, City of Tucson, City of Dallas, University Medical Center El Paso), Georgia counties (Forsyth, Henry), and scattered activity in New Jersey, Ohio, Washington, and New Mexico—indicating national geographic distribution with no single region dominant. The mix includes county EMS departments, fire rescue services, city fire departments, health departments, and specialized transit authorities.

Recent representative opportunities show the breadth and frequency of procurement under this code.
