UNSPSC 85121801 Blood analysis laboratory services, a Commodity code, encompasses clinical laboratory testing for blood specimens and related diagnostics that state and local government agencies procure to support patient care, occupational health surveillance, and public health monitoring across corrections, mental health facilities, veterans' centers, school districts, fire departments, and specialized health programs. State and local governments buying under this code conduct routine clinical chemistry and hematology testing, specialized panels for disease surveillance and environmental exposures, drug screening, occupational health assessments, and postmortem analysis, with vendors providing specimen collection, test processing, results reporting, and electronic health record integration at fixed fees per test or volume-based pricing aligned with Medicare reimbursement schedules.

Issuing bodies include state departments (human services, health, veterans affairs, corrections), county governments (commissioners' offices, sheriff departments, medical examiners), municipal and school district human resources divisions, fire departments, and specialized health agencies such as mental health authorities and veterans' centers. State departments of veterans affairs in Kentucky and Texas health and human services agencies appear as repeat buyers for skilled nursing facilities and mental health hospitals; state and local occupational health procurements for fire and law enforcement personnel are similarly concentrated among fire departments, police agencies, and correctional facilities nationwide.
