UNSPSC 42321504 Intramedullary nails or rods is a Commodity code that encompasses orthopedic surgical implants and related extraction or removal systems sourced by state and local health care providers, primarily public hospitals, medical centers, and county health systems. State and local governments acquire these products both as direct component purchases for surgical inventory and through cooperative-purchasing master agreements that establish pricing and terms across multiple jurisdictions. Recent solicitations show hospitals and health systems procuring extraction systems for safe removal of intramedullary nails and related orthopedic hardware, as well as seeking to establish master-supply agreements that allow member entities to draw devices at negotiated rates without executing individual RFPs.

The issuing bodies are primarily state health departments and county public hospital systems; the most recent activity includes San Mateo Medical Center (a county-operated acute-care hospital and clinic system in California), cooperative-purchasing vehicles such as NASPO ValuePoint and Sourcewell (which aggregate demand across state and local member entities), and state capital-project procurement offices. San Mateo Medical Center posted RFP 666002526252 in July 2026 seeking orthopedic hardware removal and extraction system services on an as-needed basis for a three-year term, requiring ISO 13485:2016 certification, five years of acute-care hospital experience, and capability to support multiple implant manufacturers; the County applied a local-business preference of 5 to 10 percent. NASPO ValuePoint posted master-agreement RFP 26RFP1433 (proposals due November 9, 2026) to establish pricing across state and local buyers, and Sourcewell posted a physical health products solicitation (RFP 26RFP102026, due October 20, 2026) intended to create a contracting vehicle for its Participating Entities. Recent activity concentrates in California and the upper Midwest, with cooperative vehicles spanning broader geographic reach across multiple states.
