UNSPSC 85816016: Introduction of serum, toxoid and vaccine into peripheral artery, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a administrative intervention or procedure to introduction of serum, toxoid and vaccine into peripheral artery, open approach. This administrative 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 3E0504Z

UNSPSC 85816016, Introduction of serum, toxoid and vaccine into peripheral artery, open approach, is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a clinical procedure — the parenteral administration of immunological products — yet the recent solicitations tagged under this code reflect health service contracting in areas including telehealth, occupational health, behavioral health, and specialty medical services, none of which match the narrow procedural scope the code name implies.

State and local issuers posting under this code span a diverse base: county health systems (San Mateo, Santa Clara, DeKalb), state health authorities (Nevada, Colorado, Texas), municipal fire departments and emergency services (Sarasota, Boulder, Phoenix), school districts (Parkway), specialized care facilities (Abilene State Supported Living Center), public health agencies (Solano, Rockland County), and regional entities (Sourcewell). The recent-opportunities block shows no concentration among repeat buyers — each issuer appears once or twice across the dataset. Geographically, recent activity disperses across California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Kansas, Michigan, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Tennessee, Texas, and Washington, with no standout regional concentration. Representative recent solicitations include Inland Empire Health Plan (California) seeking 24/7 virtual urgent care services via RFI due October 31, 2026; the Nevada Health Authority requesting Program of All Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) operations under RFP due December 10, 2026; San Mateo County (California) contracting cancer registry services and handheld retinal screening devices under two separate RFPs due November 2026; and the City of Phoenix seeking cancer screening services under an RFP due February 2, 2026 (a future 2027 contract commencement). The mismatch between the code's procedural naming and the operational health-services character of recent solicitations suggests either systematic miscoding at the issuer level or that the code has been repurposed in state procurement systems to encompass broader clinical and administrative health contracting. Activity is distributed and ongoing, but the code does not reliably signal the specific commodity or service class a business development professional should target for pursuit.
