UNSPSC 42331510: IV Start

Kits for use during IV Start procedures.

UNSPSC 42331510 IV Start, a Commodity code, encompasses the procurement of intravenous access supplies and services by state and local health systems, correctional facilities, emergency medical services, and county health plans. Recent state and local activity shows demand for IV start supplies and related medical services concentrated among county correctional facilities, county health departments, and municipal emergency medical services. The work being solicited includes procurement of IV supplies as a component of broader inmate medical services contracts, virtual urgent care platforms requiring IV capability, and fire department medical director services overseeing EMS programs that depend on IV access protocols. Issuing bodies span county correctional authorities (Muscogee County Prison in Georgia), county procurement offices procuring on behalf of health departments and county health consortiums (Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Monroe County Board of County Commissioners), and municipal fire departments providing emergency medical response (Santa Monica Fire Department). One standout repeat buyer pattern appears in county health plan administration, where Collier County and Monroe County both solicited comprehensive healthcare services requiring IV capability integration.

Recent representative opportunities include the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP No. 26-0008 for inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison posted April 15, 2026, with proposals due May 15, 2026, which specifies expendable medical supplies including IV supplies as part of comprehensive inmate medical intake, sick call, and chronic care services; Collier County Board of County Commissioners' RFP 25-8414 for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services posted April 9, 2026, covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual pharmacy spending of $8.7 million; and Monroe County Board of County Commissioners' RFP for Virtual Primary and Urgent Care Services posted March 14, 2026, with proposals due April 16, 2026, requiring integrated virtual care and 24/7 urgent care access for approximately 2,300 county members. Geographic concentration reflects recent activity in Florida (Collier County, Monroe County) and Georgia (Muscogee County), with California representation through San Mateo County's MHSA peer support pilot and Santa Monica Fire Department's medical director solicitation. The code shows consistent but narrow activity, driven primarily by county health plan administration and correctional healthcare procurement rather than retail or hospital supply chain activity.
