UNSPSC 85161507: Reprocessing medical or surgical equipment service agreement

Agreement between the hospital and the selling company to provide reprocessed medical devices for a specified period of time. Reprocessing medical devices is a process that involves cleaning, disinfection, sterilization, and other procedures to make used devices safe for reuse.

UNSPSC 85161507 Reprocessing medical or surgical equipment service agreement, a Commodity code, covers preventive maintenance, repair, calibration, and full-service agreements for medical and surgical equipment used across state and local healthcare facilities, state hospitals, supported living centers, and county health systems. The code encompasses annual maintenance contracts for diagnostic imaging systems (CT scanners, ultrasound equipment), infusion pumps, ventilators, durable medical equipment, call light systems, and specialized biomedical devices, with contracts typically structured as firm-fixed-price agreements requiring manufacturer authorization, technical certifications, and HIPAA compliance. State and local issuing bodies span Texas Health and Human Services Commission, California Department of Health Services, county health departments (San Bernardino, Hillsborough, Orange, Harris County, Collier County), municipal fire departments, state veterans affairs agencies, state supported living centers and hospitals, and community health organizations. Activity concentrates in Texas, California, and Florida, with recent solicitations posted through June 2026 targeting maintenance and repair services for specific equipment types at defined healthcare locations.
