UNSPSC 85802147 Immobilization of face using cast is a Commodity code that does not reflect the scope of work state and local governments are actually buying under this code designation. Recent state and local solicitations tagged with this code encompass nursing staffing for medically fragile students, virtual urgent care services, mobile dialysis, laboratory services including phlebotomy and clinical testing, occupational health screenings, drug and alcohol testing, medical review officer services, and postmortem testing — none of which involve facial casting or orthopedic immobilization products. The source does not establish a coherent product or service category; instead, it reveals a taxonomy mismatch where jurisdictions have applied a narrow orthopedic commodity code to a broad range of health care and clinical laboratory services.

State and local issuing bodies using this code include school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida), county health authorities (Escambia County Corrections, San Mateo County, Collin County, Brevard County), state health departments (Texas HHSC, Illinois DHS, Nevada, Kentucky, DC), regional health plans (Inland Empire Health Plan in California), transit authorities (Dallas Area Rapid Transit), and special-purpose districts (Integral Care mental health authority in Texas). Geographic activity spans Florida, Texas, California, Colorado, Illinois, and Nevada, with no dominant concentration. Representative recent opportunities include Hillsborough County Public Schools' sole-source Notice of Intent to purchase nursing staffing for medically fragile students through AB Staffing Solutions (response period closed November 27, 2025); Escambia County Corrections' RFP for onsite mobile dialysis services for inmate patients, proposals due November 3, 2026; Illinois Department of Human Services' IFB for clinical laboratory services across 14 mental health and developmental disability facilities, bids due September 9, 2026 with a 7% Business Enterprise Program participation goal; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for lead sample analysis services, bids due August 21, 2026. The code is actively solicited across jurisdictions but shows no alignment between its title and actual procurement scope.
