UNSPSC 42182306: Neurological discriminators

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a Neurological discriminator in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901811.

UNSPSC 42182306 Neurological discriminators is a Commodity code that maps poorly to the state and local opportunities posted under it. The recent solicitations span surgical laser equipment and technician support, surgical power instruments, ventilator maintenance, law enforcement equipment, intraosseous infusion devices, educational instructional resources, ultrasound systems, and spinal implants — none of which are neurological diagnostic or measurement devices. The code appears to be a catch-all miscategorization in state and local procurement systems, with issuing bodies including county health systems (San Mateo Medical Center, Hillsborough County), emergency medical services (Marion County), school districts (Klein ISD), higher education institutions (Valencia College, University of Texas Health Science Center), and cooperative purchasing entities (Sourcewell). No single issuer dominates the activity; opportunities are scattered across Florida, Texas, Minnesota-region cooperatives, and California.

Recent activity includes San Mateo Medical Center's RFP for laser equipment and OR technician support (posted July 10, 2026, due July 10, 2026) and a separate RFP for surgical power instruments (five-year term, RFP released May 7, 2026, due May 28, 2026); Hillsborough County's ITB for three-year maintenance and repair services on 40 Vyaire LTV 1200 ventilators (due June 12, 2026, estimated contract value $140,225); Marion County's procurement for Vidacare EZ-IO intraosseous infusion devices (posted May 4, 2026, due May 11, 2026); and the University of Texas Health Science Center's RFP for spinal implants and supplies on a bill-only basis for its new Multispecialty and Research Hospital (questions due February 23, 2026, proposals due March 10, 2026). The code shows no coherent purchasing pattern aligned with neurological diagnostic equipment, and bidders should verify whether a posted opportunity under this code actually matches their core offerings before investing RFP response resources.
