UNSPSC 85801759 Removal of cast on right lower arm is a Commodity code that represents clinical specimen and pathology services being solicited by state and local health authorities, school districts, and corrections agencies. The code encompasses medical laboratory testing, diagnostic analysis, phlebotomy, specimen collection, and related clinical support services. While the nominal code name suggests orthopedic cast removal, the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code reveal substantial procurement activity for occupational health services, clinical laboratory testing, drug and alcohol testing, postmortem analysis, and medical surveillance across multiple agency types and service models.

State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code span school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida), county health departments (Collin County Health Care Services in Texas; Escambia County Corrections in Florida; Santa Clara County Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine in California), state departments and authorities (Illinois Department of Human Services; Texas Health and Human Services Commission; Kentucky Department of Veteran Affairs; Washington State Department of Transportation; State of Nevada; District of Columbia Office of the Chief Medical Examiner), city governments (City of Tucson; Austin Energy; City of Arlington), regional transit authorities (Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority), and specialized health authorities (Inland Empire Health Plan in California; Integral Care in Texas). Illinois Department of Human Services emerges as a repeat buyer, posting multiple clinical laboratory service bids across mental health and developmental disability facilities. Recent opportunities include Hillsborough County Public Schools' single-source staffing award to AB Staffing Solutions for 1:1 nursing services for medically fragile students (Notice of Intent issued October 19, 2026); Escambia County Corrections' RFP for onsite chronic dialysis services (due November 3, 2026); Illinois Department of Human Services' IFB for clinical laboratory services at 14 mental health and developmental disability facilities (due August 14, 2026, with 7% Business Enterprise Program goal); Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for lead sample analysis services in Austin (due August 21, 2026, requiring EPA-NLLAP accreditation); and Hillsborough County's ITB for comprehensive occupational wellness examinations for fire rescue personnel (estimated $2.48 million over three years, due July 21, 2026). Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Illinois, Florida, California, Colorado, Kentucky, and Nevada, with additional scattered opportunities in Georgia, Arizona, New York, New Jersey, and Washington state. The code shows sustained procurement velocity across diverse clinical service lines, though the nominal UNSPSC descriptor bears minimal relationship to the actual work being bought.
