UNSPSC 85801576: Immobilization of right upper extremity using splint

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a placement intervention or procedure to immobilization of right upper extremity using splint. 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 2W38X1Z

UNSPSC 85801576 Immobilization of right upper extremity using splint is a Commodity code that does not match the work state and local governments are actually soliciting under this designation. The recent opportunities posted against this code encompass clinical laboratory testing, occupational health examinations, drug and alcohol screening, postmortem testing, pharmaceutical services, and medical surveillance — none of which involve limb immobilization or splinting. The code shows misclassification rather than an active purchasing category, and no recent opportunities are genuinely aligned with the code's nominal scope.

The issuing bodies across the opportunity block include state health departments, county commissioners, independent school districts, city government, fire departments, prison systems, transit authorities, and state agencies including veteran affairs, public health, and workforce commissions. Repeat buyers include the Commonwealth of Kentucky Department of Veterans Affairs (which posted multiple laboratory services RFPs for five different veteran center facilities between April and June 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (which issued separate lead analysis bids in June and July 2026), and school districts and county health systems seeking occupational screening and drug testing services. Geographic concentration spans Texas, Illinois, Kentucky, Michigan, Florida, Colorado, Georgia, and Nevada, with the heaviest recent activity in Texas and Kentucky. Representative recent opportunities include the Illinois Department of Human Services' IFB for laboratory services across 14 mental health facilities (due August 4, 2026, under IFB B-52955 with 7% BEP goal), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's lead sample analysis services for environmental testing (due July 31, 2026, requiring EPA-NLLAP accreditation), and the Kentucky Department of Veterans Affairs' medical laboratory services RFP for the Thomson-Hood Veterans Center (due June 2, 2026). The code's presence in procurement systems appears to reflect administrative error rather than genuine commodity-level demand.
