UNSPSC 85801765 Removal of cast on right upper extremity is a Commodity code representing clinical diagnostic and therapeutic laboratory services, though the recent state and local procurement opportunities tagged under this code do not reflect cast removal procedures. Instead, the opportunities demonstrate that this code encompasses a much broader spectrum of clinical laboratory testing, occupational health screening, medical surveillance, drug and alcohol testing, and diagnostic services across diverse healthcare delivery settings. State and local procurement under this code reflects the inconsistent tagging practices common in some jurisdictions; the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited diverge substantially. The solicitations show state and local governments—particularly health departments, veteran care facilities, school districts, corrections departments, fire rescue services, and transit authorities—buying clinical lab services including comprehensive metabolic panels, drug screening, occupational physicals, and specialized diagnostics such as lead analysis and hantavirus testing, often bundled with specimen collection, phlebotomy, and integration into electronic medical record systems.

Issuing bodies include state health and human services agencies (Texas HHSC, Illinois Department of Public Health, Michigan MDHHS, Nevada Purchasing, Colorado DHS, Kentucky Veterans Affairs), county and municipal health departments (Hillsborough County, Harris Center for Mental Health, Collier County), independent school districts (Austin ISD, Northside ISD, Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City ISD), and specialized facilities (fire departments, corrections departments, veteran homes). Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's lead sample analysis services RFP (HHS0017054V2, due July 31, 2026) seeking EPA-accredited laboratory testing of environmental samples from sites where children with elevated blood lead levels reside; the Illinois Department of Human Services' clinical laboratory services IFB (26444DHS444OCB52955, due August 4, 2026) covering 14 mental health and developmental disability facilities with a 7% Business Enterprise Program goal; the Kentucky Department of Veterans Affairs' medical laboratory services RFPs across multiple veterans centers (e.g., RFP074 2600000394 for the Carl M. Brashear Radcliff Veterans Center, due May 1, 2026) requiring CLIA-certified vendors with PointClickCare integration; and the Michigan MDHHS' statewide drug screening RFP (RFP1712600000001381, due May 4, 2026) for oral fluid and urine testing across 83 counties. Geographic concentration appears heaviest in Texas, Kentucky, Michigan, Illinois, and Nevada, with scattered activity in Florida, Georgia, Oregon, Colorado, and Ohio. Most recent opportunities reflect multi-year contract terms, insurance and compliance requirements aligned with CLIA and HIPAA standards, and preference for vendors demonstrating integration capability with electronic health records platforms such as PointClickCare and Epic.
