UNSPSC 85801531: Immobilization of left upper arm using other device

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a placement intervention or procedure to immobilization of left upper arm using other device. This placement intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 2W3BXYZ

UNSPSC 85801531 Immobilization of left upper arm using other device is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually purchasing under this designation. The recent opportunities tagged with this code show no procurement activity for arm immobilization devices or orthopedic equipment; instead, the sample records reveal solicitations for clinical laboratory testing, occupational health and drug screening, wastewater analysis, pharmacy benefit management, hazardous waste disposal, and inmate medical services across health departments, transit authorities, counties, school districts, and state veterans affairs systems. The code designation appears to be a classification mismatch rather than an active procurement category.

State and local issuing bodies across multiple jurisdictions—Illinois Department of Human Services, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Kentucky Department of Veterans Affairs, Colorado Department of Human Services, Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, and counties in Florida, Georgia, and Texas—are actively procuring clinical laboratory services, occupational health examinations, drug and alcohol testing, and specialized diagnostic work. These represent the bulk of recent activity in the dataset, with laboratory testing services dominating across veterans centers, psychiatric hospitals, mental health facilities, school districts, and public health agencies. Occupational screening, physical examinations for firefighters and public safety employees, and pre-employment medical evaluations appear as secondary themes. Georgia (Henry County), Texas (multiple locations including Austin, Harris County, and statewide), Kentucky (multiple veterans centers), Florida (Brevard, Collier, and Hillsborough counties), Michigan, Colorado, and Illinois show the strongest recent procurement activity. The geographic spread is broad across the South, Midwest, and Mountain West, with Texas and Kentucky particularly active. Representative recent opportunities include the Illinois Department of Human Services Bureau of Pharmacy and Clinical Support Services soliciting clinical laboratory services at 14 mental health facilities statewide under IFB with a 7% Business Enterprise Program goal and bids due August 4, 2026; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission seeking EPA-recognized laboratory services for lead sample analysis with HUB subcontracting requirements and a due date of July 31, 2026; and the Commonwealth of Kentucky Department of Veterans Affairs issuing multiple RFPs for medical laboratory services at skilled nursing facilities with responses due in late April and May 2026. The code itself shows little relevant activity, suggesting that vendors should disregard the UNSPSC designation and focus on actual marketplace demand in clinical and occupational health services.
