UNSPSC 42201838 Medical enteroclysis catheters or catheters kits is a Commodity code that describes specialized medical tubing and insertion devices used in clinical and residential healthcare settings. The two recent state and local solicitations under this code reflect divergent purchasing patterns: one is a Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP requiring physician-led examinations across multiple locations, and the other is a Texas HHSC IFB for gastrostomy feeding tubes, catheters, IV stabilization devices, and related medical supplies for a state-supported living center. The UNSPSC code name does not align cleanly with the scope of the Washington solicitation, which centers on medical examination services rather than catheter hardware. The Texas IFB aligns more directly with the code's nominal scope and names specific product lines from Cardinal Health, C.R. Bard, Becton Dickinson, AV Anos, and Nonin. State and local issuing bodies under this code include state health and human services agencies, state transportation departments, and facility operators managing residential or occupational health programs.

Activity under the code appears concentrated in Texas and Washington based on the recent opportunities posted. The Washington State Department of Transportation, on behalf of the Washington State Ferries (RFP20260825), posted an occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference scheduled August 31, 2026, seeking physician-led baseline, periodic, and exit medical examinations for four employee categories across 14 Washington ferry locations. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHS0017603) posted an IFB due July 30, 2026, for medical supplies and equipment including gastrostomy feeding tubes, catheters, and IV devices for the Abilene State Supported Living Center, structured as a blanket purchase agreement with a September 1, 2026 through August 31, 2027 contract term and one optional one-year extension. The Texas IFB permitted price adjustments indexed to the Consumer Price Index and retained no guaranteed minimum volume.
