UNSPSC 42331500: Vascular Access

Kits used to facilitate IV delivery and maintenance.

UNSPSC 42331500 Vascular Access is a Class code that encompasses pharmacy benefit management, medical supplies procurement, and clinical support services rather than vascular devices or procedures narrowly construed. State and local governments soliciting under this code are procuring comprehensive pharmacy services, medical administration programs, and integrated healthcare delivery — including formulary management, claims processing, medication dispensing, and associated supply provision. Issuing bodies include county corrections departments, county health systems and benefits offices, and municipal fire and emergency services. The Muscogee County Prison (Columbus Consolidated Government) and Collier County Board of County Commissioners represent typical buyers — the former procuring inmate medical and pharmacy services bundled with medical supplies and clinical administration, the latter seeking pharmacy benefit management services covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with pass-through rebates and cost containment requirements. These jurisdictions expect vendors to demonstrate multi-year experience managing large-scale pharmacy programs, achieve accreditation or meet benefits-consultant standards, maintain robust insurance, and comply with E-Verify and state business registration requirements.

Recent activity is concentrated in Florida and Georgia. The Collier County RFP (due April 9, 2026) and Monroe County virtual care RFP (due April 16, 2026) show active solicitation in Florida counties; the Muscogee County Prison RFP (due May 15, 2026) represents Georgia activity. The Muscogee County solicitation is structured as a two-year contract with three one-year renewal options at an incumbent cost of $95,537.71 monthly; Collier County references historical annual pharmacy spending of approximately $8.7 million and expects a three-year term with two optional one-year renewals effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2028. Both RFPs emphasize integration with existing medical management partners, transparent pricing with financial performance guarantees, and local vendor preference consideration where applicable. Minor recent opportunities in San Mateo County (behavioral health peer support, $580,000 pilot) and Santa Monica (fire department medical director services) show broader state and local use of the code, though these are tangential to core pharmacy and vascular access procurement activity.
