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 2W15X7Z

UNSPSC 85802435 Compression of back using intermittent pressure device is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local procurement activity captured in the recent opportunities block. The opportunities posted under this code span clinical laboratory services, occupational health screening, drug and alcohol testing, postmortem testing, emergency medical services, and pharmacy benefit management—none of which involve compression devices or back treatment equipment. State and local procurement bodies are not purchasing compression therapy devices under this UNSPSC designation; the code appears to be a labeling mismatch in the source material.

The recent opportunities show active solicitation for laboratory and occupational health services across Texas, Kentucky, Michigan, Colorado, Illinois, Nevada, Oregon, Florida, Georgia, and other jurisdictions, with issuing bodies including state departments of health and human services, county governments, veterans centers, school districts, and fire departments. Representative solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission requesting lead sample analysis services (IFB, due July 31, 2026), the Illinois Department of Human Services soliciting clinical laboratory services at 14 mental health facilities (IFB, due August 4, 2026), and the Commonwealth of Kentucky seeking laboratory services at multiple veterans centers through the Department of Veterans Affairs (RFP, due dates ranging April through June 2026). However, none of these opportunities relate to back compression therapy or intermittent pressure devices. If pursuing this code, clarify the UNSPSC designation with the issuing body to confirm whether the intent is medical equipment procurement or a different service category entirely.
