UNSPSC 85816218, Introduction of serum, toxoid and vaccine into peripheral vein, open approach, is a Commodity code that describes immunization and vaccination administration procedures. State and local governments procuring under this code are actually buying medical services ranging from clinical vaccine delivery to comprehensive public health immunization programs, occupational health screening and vaccination services, and wellness initiatives supporting employee and resident health.

The issuing bodies span state health departments, county health authorities, county sheriffs' offices, city health systems, school districts, and municipal governments. Recent activity shows California's Inland Empire Health Plan pursuing virtual urgent care with medication authority, DeKalb County Georgia conducting a broad medical services procurement, the Nevada Health Authority executing large integrated care contracts (PACE operations and rural value acceleration facilitation), San Mateo County Medical Center handling cancer registry and retinal screening services, and specialized occupational health solicitations from Boulder County (jail EMT staffing), the City of Ocala (employee health clinic management), Cobb County (NFPA occupational health), Los Alamos County (health commons family planning and STI services), and others. Geographic spread is concentrated in California (Inland Empire, San Mateo), Nevada (Clark, Washoe, rural counties), Colorado (nursing home placement beds), Georgia (DeKalb, Forsyth, Cobb counties), Florida (multiple counties including Marion, Seminole, Brevard), with activity also in New Jersey, Kansas, Ohio, Texas, Arizona, Oregon, Illinois, and the District of Columbia. Representative recent solicitations include the Nevada Health Authority RFP 41NHA-S4038 for PACE operations across Clark, Washoe, and rural Nevada counties (proposals due December 10, 2026), San Mateo County's cancer registry services RFP (proposals due October 2, 2026) and handheld retinal screening devices RFP (proposals due November 6, 2026), and the City of Ocala's employee health clinic RFP No. HUM/260527 for management and staffing of on-site occupational health services to approximately 2,950 eligible subscribers (proposals due April 20, 2026). The code shows robust recent activity driven by occupational health mandates, public health expansion post-pandemic, and municipal investment in employee wellness infrastructure, though many opportunities span considerably broader medical service scope than vaccination administration alone.
