In this classification, this commodity consists of comprehensive services required to be a chronic disability rehabilitation service

UNSPSC 85122109 Rehabilitation services for people with chronic disabilities, Commodity code, encompasses direct and therapeutic interventions delivered to individuals with developmental disabilities, visual impairments, hearing loss, speech and language disorders, and other chronic conditions within school districts, state health and human services agencies, county corrections and community supervision departments, and regional early intervention programs. State and local governments procure speech-language pathology services, occupational and physical therapy, orientation and mobility specialist services, art therapy, music therapy, peer support services, and specialized behavioral and cognitive interventions—typically as staffing services on an as-needed or managed service provider basis rather than as capital equipment or facility construction. The issuing body mix spans school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida, Tacoma Public Schools in Washington, Crook County School District in Oregon, Griffin-Spalding County School System in Georgia, Birdville Independent School District in Texas), state departments of education and human services (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Michigan Department of Education, Utah Department of Health and Human Services), county community supervision and corrections departments (Harris County in Texas, Denton County in Texas), county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System in California, San Mateo Medical Center in California), and regional special education cooperatives (High Desert Education Service District in Oregon). School districts and state human services agencies are repeat buyers under this code, with education procurement dominating recent activity.

Recent solicitations span multiple service categories and geographies. Hillsborough County Public Schools issued RFP 24127-RFP-DST in August 2024 (addendum extended deadline to March 23, 2026) seeking speech-language pathologists and pathology assistants for approximately 100 SLP and 2 SLPA vacancies, with annual budget approximately $11.6 million and 26% funded through federal IDEA grants; the remainder comes from other district sources. Harris County Community Supervision & Corrections Department issued RFSQ 260267 (due November 2, 2026) for substance abuse treatment and cognitive interventions for female offenders in the Women Helping Ourselves Program, with performance beginning February 1, 2027. Griffin-Spalding County School System in Georgia issued RFP PE55096NONST2027000000023 (due October 30, 2026) seeking a Managed Service Provider for comprehensive special education staffing across 18 schools serving approximately 10,000 students. Birdville Independent School District in Texas issued IFB 01027 (due October 21, 2026) for special education contracted services across 23 line items including speech therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, and psychology services, with 2025-2026 cost-price analysis of $398,494.30 and contract term through November 30, 2027 with three optional one-year renewals. Geographic concentration is strongest in Texas, Florida, Georgia, and Washington, with additional activity in Oregon, Michigan, California, New Jersey, and Arizona. The code shows consistent, steady procurement activity driven by special education mandates under IDEA, early intervention programs, and state behavioral health systems, with contract values ranging from approximately $13,000 annually (orientation and mobility specialist services in Mississippi) to $11.6 million annually (district-level SLP services in Florida).
