UNSPSC 85161505: Medical or surgical equipment or implant rental and shipping fee

Fees incurred for renting and/or shipping equipment or implants.

UNSPSC 85161505 Medical or surgical equipment or implant rental and shipping fee is a Commodity code covering the procurement, rental, maintenance, and shipping of medical equipment and diagnostic devices used in clinical and educational health settings. Recent state and local opportunities under this code show that jurisdictions are buying specialized diagnostic imaging systems, examination room fixtures, and clinical equipment maintenance services. Valencia College in Florida pursued a $96,093.00 sole-source acquisition of a Philips Affiniti 70 Ultrasound System for its Diagnostic Medical Sonography program, while Hillsborough County in Florida issued competitive sealed bids for three-year maintenance and repair contracts on 40 Vyaire Medical LTV 1200 ventilators (estimated contract value $140,225.00) and a two-year sole-source procurement for deionized water system maintenance and components (estimated value $76,530.00). The State of California Department of Public Health also solicited bids for exam lights and furniture to outfit the North Hollywood Health Center, with multiple posting rounds in August and September 2026. Issuing bodies span higher-education institutions, county health departments, and state facility-management agencies.

Activity concentrates in Florida and California, with multiple repeat procurement actions at the North Hollywood Health Center in California (four separate RFBs for exam lights and furniture between August and September 2026) and two significant services contracts from Hillsborough County in May and July 2026. Valencia College's sole-source ultrasound procurement closed November 13, 2025; the Hillsborough County ventilator maintenance RFB closed June 12, 2026; and the California exam-lights RFB (RFBIS27200221) closed October 9, 2026. The California solicitations required Certified Business Enterprise (CBE) forms as part of bid submission, signaling that small-business or minority-business certifications may affect evaluation. The code sees active procurement for both capital equipment acquisition and ongoing maintenance and repair services across health-care delivery, educational, and diagnostic laboratory environments.
