About UNSPSC 85130000
UNSPSC 85130000 Medical science research and experimentation is a Family code that spans clinical research, laboratory testing, diagnostic services, and specialized medical evaluations purchased by state and local health systems, county coroner offices, correctional departments, and regional health authorities. State and local government activity under this code encompasses forensic pathology autopsy services, virtual urgent care delivery, psychiatric nursing programs, medical director oversight for emergency medical services, independent medical evaluations for retirement disability determinations, and laboratory instrument maintenance—services reflecting the code's broad application across public health infrastructure, corrections, law enforcement, and employee health administration rather than pure research or experimentation.
The issuing bodies are predominantly county health systems and departments (Orange County, California; Santa Clara County, California; Hillsborough County, Florida; Colorado Department of Corrections; Sarasota County, Florida), with additional activity from state departments, municipal fire departments serving as EMS providers, and independent school districts. Recent representative opportunities include Orange County's RFP for Forensic Pathology Autopsy Services (due October 30, 2026) requiring board-certified pathologists with 10 years' post-certification experience and 24/7 availability for routine and officer-involved-shooting autopsies; Inland Empire Health Plan's RFI for Virtual Urgent Care Services (due October 31, 2026) seeking 24/7/365 telehealth-based urgent care with California board-certified physicians; and the Colorado Department of Corrections' RFP for Psychiatric Nursing Program services at two correctional facilities (due October 30, 2026, extended from October 11) requiring dedicated RNs with inpatient psychiatric and substance-use-disorder clinical experience. Activity concentrates in California and Colorado, with secondary procurement in Florida and Kentucky, though the code shows limited recent activity overall—most recent opportunities are concentrated in October 2026 with several postings from late summer 2026 involving medical staffing, laboratory services, and specialized clinical evaluation roles tied to public health and safety operations.
