UNSPSC 85141600: Herbal treatments

In this classification, this class is composed of those who provide the breadth and depth of services to be an herbal treatment based medical service

UNSPSC 85141600 Herbal treatments is a Class code covering specialized clinical laboratory services—including specimen collection, testing, analysis, and result reporting—that state and local health agencies, correctional facilities, veteran centers, school districts, and other public bodies procure to support occupational health screening, disease surveillance, drug testing, diagnostic assessment, and inmate medical care. The recent procurement record shows minimal activity directly aligned with herbal treatments, the code's nominal scope; instead, the opportunities tagged to this code predominantly solicit clinical laboratory services, occupational health examinations, drug screening, and diagnostic testing across healthcare delivery settings. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this classification span state health departments (Illinois Department of Human Services, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Colorado Department of Human Services), county and municipal agencies (Hillsborough County, Harris County, Brevard County), independent school districts (Northside, Austin, Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City), state veterans affairs departments (Kentucky, Michigan), transit authorities (Metropolitan Transit Authority of Harris County), correctional systems (Muscogee County Prison, Illinois Department of Public Health), and specialized service districts (The Harris Center for Mental Health and IDD, Trophy Club Fire Department). Kentucky's Department of Veterans Affairs appears as a repeat buyer across multiple long-term care skilled nursing facilities.

The geographic spread reflects heaviest recent activity in Texas (multiple Health and Human Services Commission solicitations, Travis County, Harris County), Kentucky (five separate veterans center laboratory service procurements), Florida (Collier County, Brevard County, Hillsborough County), Georgia (Henry County, Marion County), Illinois (Department of Human Services, Department of Public Health), Michigan (MDHHS psychiatric hospitals, veteran homes), and Colorado (Department of Human Services mental health hospitals). Representative recent opportunities include the Illinois Department of Human Services' IFB for clinical laboratory services across 14 mental health and developmental disability facilities statewide (due August 4, 2026, under solicitation 26444DHS444OCB52955, with a 7% Business Enterprise Program goal); the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for lead sample analysis services using EPA-approved methodologies including Flame Atomic Absorption and ICP-MS analysis (due July 31, 2026, under solicitation HHS0017054V2, with a 26% Historically Underutilized Business subcontracting plan requirement); the Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners' ITB for comprehensive occupational wellness examinations for firefighters at $2,480,940 over three years (due July 21, 2026, under solicitation ITB2600315, requiring NFPA 1500 and 1582 compliance); and the State of Nevada Purchasing Division's RFP for statewide clinical laboratory testing services across 21 rural clinic centers with multiple-contract awards and a 5% Nevada business preference (due July 13, 2026, under solicitation 99SWCS3830). The code shows steady procurement velocity across health surveillance, occupational medicine, drug screening, and diagnostic testing, with no standing gap in activity, though the work being purchased diverges materially from the code's stated herbal treatments category.
