UNSPSC 85802446: Change splint on back

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 2W05X1Z

UNSPSC 85802446 Change splint on back is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with its nominal scope. The single recent opportunity matching this code — Hillsborough County Public Schools' Notice of Intent to Purchase Single/Sole Source for staffing services through AB Staffing Solutions (Solicitation 25619SSDDST, due December 2, 2025) — concerns comprehensive 1:1 nursing staffing for medically fragile students with complex health needs including ventilator management, tracheostomy care, medication administration, and seizure management. The procurement specifies Florida-licensed Advanced Practice Registered Nurses, Registered Nurses, or Licensed Practical Nurses rather than orthotic or splint-application personnel. The remaining opportunities in the source block address laboratory services, occupational health examinations, drug testing, phlebotomy, laboratory equipment maintenance, dialysis services, billing services, and various other medical and clinical functions — none of which align with splint application or musculoskeletal care.

The code shows no meaningful recent activity in state and local procurement that matches its stated purpose. School districts, counties, and state health agencies are not currently soliciting splint-change services under this classification or any closely related UNSPSC designation in the recent-opportunities record. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement activity suggests this code either sees no current demand from state and local buyers, is being applied inconsistently or incorrectly in existing solicitations, or serves a narrow clinical niche not yet reflected in recent public procurement notices. Pursuit of opportunities under this code is not advised without first verifying that actual customer requirements align with the splint-change service line.
