UNSPSC 85819228: Transfusion of nonautologous platelets into peripheral artery, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to transfusion of nonautologous platelets into peripheral artery, open approach. This surgical 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 30250R1

UNSPSC 85819228, Transfusion of nonautologous platelets into peripheral artery, open approach (Commodity), shows little recent activity aligned with its nominal medical procedure scope. The six recent opportunities tagged to this code span medical staffing, pharmacy benefits, occupational surveillance, pension disability evaluation, surgical carve-outs, and youth detention healthcare — none of which involve platelet transfusion services. The code appears to be a taxonomy mismatch; state and local procurement offices are using this Commodity code to solicit substantially different healthcare administration and staffing services rather than the specific clinical procedure the code names.

The issuing bodies include a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), and cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), with no clear pattern of repeat buyers. Representative recent activity includes the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services with a response date of October 16, 2026 and a $750,000 five-year contract value; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations with responses due October 9, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award RFSQ (RFSQHHSFY270052) to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing. Activity is geographically dispersed across Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas with no concentration in any single state or region. The mismatch between the code's clinical definition and the healthcare administration and staffing services actually being solicited suggests vendors should verify code assignment directly with issuing offices before pursuing opportunities tagged to this Commodity.
