UNSPSC 85110000: Disease prevention and control

In this classification this family indicates the healthcare services with the depth and breadth to prevent and control diseases

UNSPSC 85110000 Disease prevention and control is a Family code spanning telehealth urgent care, actuarial and consulting services, psychiatric nursing, counseling, and emergency medical staffing — a far broader scope than the abstract code name suggests. State and local governments are buying clinical services delivery, behavioral health interventions, and medical oversight across correctional facilities, health plans, county health systems, school districts, and emergency services, not disease surveillance or epidemiology alone. The mix of issuing bodies is diverse: California health plans and county health systems (Inland Empire Health Plan, County of Orange, County of Santa Clara), state departments of corrections and health agencies (Colorado Department of Corrections, Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services, Delaware Division of Public Health, Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services), counties and municipalities (Boulder County Sheriff's Office, Sarasota County Fire Department, Seminole County), and school districts (Madison Metropolitan School District). California counties—particularly Orange and Santa Clara—show the most recent and densest activity, with multiple concurrent solicitations for counseling, psychiatric nursing, actuarial services, and health system staffing. Colorado Department of Corrections appears twice in the recent block, posting parallel RFPs for the same psychiatric nursing program.

Recent opportunities reflect sustained demand for specialized clinical labor and health-system operations. Inland Empire Health Plan (California) issued an RFI on October 16, 2026 (due October 31) seeking vendors for 24/7/365 virtual urgent care services through board-certified physicians. County of Orange issued an RFP on October 7, 2026 (due October 23) for actuarial consulting on retiree medical plans, with 5 percent OCLSB and 8 percent DVBE preferences and a not-to-exceed value of $175,000 annually over three years. Colorado Department of Corrections posted competing RFPs (due October 11 and October 30, extended from October 11 via modification) for psychiatric nursing programs at two correctional facilities, requiring active Colorado RN licenses with psychiatric and substance-use-disorder experience. County of Orange Social Services Agency solicited licensed counseling providers (due October 12) for children and families with abuse/neglect histories at $150 per session, estimated at $840,000 annually across three years with multiple awards. Boulder County Sheriff's Office sought EMT staffing for jail operations (due October 26) at 24/7 coverage with four full-time positions. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners issued an ITB on October 1 for biohazardous waste removal at $178,807.86 over five years. The code shows steady activity across mental health, emergency medical services, pharmacy management (Ryan White ADAP programs in Delaware and New Castle County), nursing, and counseling—a pattern driven by Medicaid expansion, behavioral health workforce shortages, and sustained homelessness and criminal-justice system demands.
