UNSPSC 42240000: Orthopedic and prosthetic and sports medicine products

In this classification, this family includes the products and supplies used in the portion of medical interactions that focused of an orthopedic, prosthetic, or sports related nature.

UNSPSC 42240000 Orthopedic and prosthetic and sports medicine products is a Family code that encompasses assessment, procurement, repair, and delivery of orthopedic devices, prosthetics, hearing aids, eyeglasses, dentures, and related medical equipment for individuals with disabilities and acute-care patients. State and local governments buy under this code through direct purchases for public health agencies and disability-services programs, as well as through cooperative-purchasing master agreements that aggregate demand across multiple jurisdictions. Issuing bodies include state disability and health agencies (Massachusetts MassAbility, Minnesota through Sourcewell), counties operating public hospital systems (San Mateo Medical Center in California), and multistate cooperative-purchasing vehicles (NASPO ValuePoint administered by South Dakota). Recent solicitations reflect both direct service delivery—assessment and fitting of prosthetics and orthopedic devices for disabled individuals—and capital procurement of specialized equipment and instrumentation for acute-care surgical settings.

Recent activity clusters in three states. Massachusetts MassAbility posted an RFR in June 2026 for medical items and prosthetics services with proposals due September 14, 2026; the contract runs four years from October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2030, with total annual value of $1,000,000 and approximately 30 anticipated awards, with at least 25 percent of evaluation points allocated to Supplier Diversity Program commitments. San Mateo Medical Center (California) issued an RFP on July 1, 2026, for orthopedic hardware removal and extraction system services on an as-needed basis with a local-business preference of 5 to 10 percent. Sourcewell (Minnesota) posted an RFP on September 1, 2026, for physical health products and related services, with proposals due October 20, 2026, open to participating entities across multiple states. NASPO ValuePoint posted RFP 1433 on September 25, 2026, for medical supplies through a multistate cooperative-purchasing vehicle with proposals due November 9, 2026, administered by South Dakota. All three vehicles—direct agency procurement, county public-hospital procurement, and cooperative-purchasing master agreements—reflect ongoing state and local investment in medical devices and prosthetic services for both disability-services populations and hospital surgical programs.
