UNSPSC 85801574 Immobilization of right upper extremity using cast is a Commodity code that represents specialized clinical laboratory and diagnostic testing services, though state and local government purchasing under this code does not reflect the narrow product scope the title suggests. Recent solicitations tagged to this code show state and local buyers procuring comprehensive laboratory testing services—including clinical pathology, specimen collection, phlebotomy, result reporting, drug screening, environmental testing, and occupational health examinations—across mental health facilities, veterans centers, correctional institutions, fire departments, school districts, health departments, and transit authorities. The code encompasses both routine diagnostic work and specialized testing such as lead analysis, hantavirus detection, drug confirmation testing, histology services, and wastewater surveillance. Issuing bodies span state departments (Kentucky Department of Veterans Affairs, Illinois Department of Human Services, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Colorado Department of Human Services, Michigan DHHS), counties (Hillsborough County, Collier County, Henry County, Brevard County, Dawson County), cities (Austin, Palm Bay), school districts (Austin ISD, Northside ISD, Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City ISD), transit authorities (Metropolitan Transit Authority of Harris County), and specialized agencies (Oregon State Police, Trophy Club Fire Department, Texas Animal Health Commission). Multiple Kentucky veterans centers (Bowling Green, Thomson-Hood, Western Kentucky, Carl M. Brashear Radcliff, Paul E Patton Eastern Kentucky) appear repeatedly as repeat buyers.

Representative recent opportunities reflect the breadth of lab work actually being procured. The Illinois Department of Human Services issued IFB B-52955 on July 14, 2026 (due August 4, 2026) for clinical laboratory services across 14 mental health and developmental disability facilities statewide, with a 7% Business Enterprise Program goal and Medicare Lab Fee Reimbursement 2026 pricing as the baseline. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued lead sample analysis IFB HHS0017054V2 on July 10, 2026 (due July 31, 2026) requiring EPA-recognized NLLAP accreditation, HUB subcontracting at 26% utilization, and seven EPA-approved testing methodologies with 24–48 hour turnaround. The Commonwealth of Kentucky Department of Veterans Affairs issued multiple RFPs for medical laboratory services at five separate skilled nursing facilities between April and July 2026, with proposals consistently due by early to mid-July targeting July 1, 2026 contract start dates, requiring CLIA certification, PointClickCare EHR integration, and Medicare-based fee schedules. The City of Austin issued RFQS1100DCM4010 on July 6, 2026 (due August 4, 2026) for mobile medical surveillance serving five energy facilities, requiring five years of relevant experience, NIOSH and B-Reader certifications, and a 36-month initial term. Geographic activity concentrates in Texas (with solicitations from Austin, Harris County, San Antonio, and multiple state agencies), Kentucky (five veterans centers issuing RFPs in rapid succession), Illinois (state mental health facilities), and Florida (Collier County, Hillsborough County, Brevard County). The code shows sustained demand across Q2–Q3 2026 with no indication of slowdown; contract values span from approximately $35,000 annually for occupational physicals to $2.48 million over three years for fire department wellness exams, suggesting opportunity across small and mid-market segments.
