UNSPSC 84131611: Medical malpractice insurance

Promise of reimbursement for medical malpractice

UNSPSC 84131611 Medical malpractice insurance is a Commodity code that state and local governments source for occupational health surveillance and medical examination services, not traditional malpractice coverage. The Washington State Department of Transportation, on behalf of the Washington State Ferries (WSF), is procuring occupational medical surveillance services through RFP 20260825 with proposals due October 9, 2026. The scope includes baseline, periodic, follow-up, and exit medical examinations for shipyard workers, engine crew, deck crew, and asbestos team members, performed by or under supervision of a licensed physician board-certified in occupational medicine. Services must comply with Washington State regulatory requirements and HIPAA, include 24/7 technical support, medical record management with employee access within 15 calendar days, and overdue-examination tracking with notifications to employees, supervisors, and the safety office. The contract term is two years with WSDOT holding an option to extend for up to five additional one-year terms. Evaluation is cost-based: pricing accounts for 40 percent of the total score, with the lowest bid receiving maximum points; non-cost factors assessing capability to exceed minimum specifications account for 60 percent. A voluntary Subcontractor Inclusion Plan is available; participation goals are voluntary with zero participation creating no preference or penalty.

The code currently shows limited recent activity in state and local procurement, with the WSF opportunity representing the primary recent sourcing signal. The Washington State Department of Transportation is the issuing body, and the work must be performed across 14 Washington locations (Anacortes, Bainbridge Island, Bremerton, Clinton, Coupeville, Edmonds, Kingston, Mukilteo, Port Orchard, Port Townsend, San Juan Islands, Seattle, Tacoma, and Vashion Island) with flexible weekday scheduling. Medical examinations must be issued with at least 90 days' advance notice and results delivered within 60 days. Questions are due September 7, 2026, with answers by September 14; bidder references are due October 7, 2026; the Apparent Successful Bidder will be announced October 20, 2026, with contract award anticipated by November 30, 2026.
