UNSPSC 85819331: Transfusion of nonautologous red blood cells into peripheral vein, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to transfusion of nonautologous red blood cells into peripheral vein, 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 30233N1

UNSPSC 85819331 Transfusion of nonautologous red blood cells into peripheral vein, percutaneous approach (Commodity) shows a substantial mismatch between its nominal scope and the work actually being solicited under it by state and local governments. Recent state and local opportunities tagged with this code do not involve blood transfusion services; instead, they cover occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical center-of-excellence carve-out benefits, temporary health professional staffing, specialty medical services for youth in detention, and pharmacy benefit management. The code appears to have been applied erroneously to health administrative and staffing opportunities rather than the specific clinical transfusion procedure its name describes. The issuing bodies span diverse jurisdictions: city pension boards and retirement offices, county government health systems and probation departments, and municipal employee benefits administrations, with no pattern of repeat buyers under this particular code across the recent opportunities block.

Geographic activity reaches across at least four states—Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (WSDOT on behalf of Washington State Ferries), and Florida (Collier County)—with Texas represented as well (Harris County). Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminals, due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for disability medical record summary preparation and independent medical evaluation services for public safety personnel, due October 16, 2026, with a five-year term and maximum compensation of $750,000; and the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit center-of-excellence carve-out services, due October 7, 2026. The code's current tagging appears to reflect administrative or data-entry error rather than genuine commodity alignment, suggesting that vendors tracking opportunities under this code should verify actual service requirements before investing in pursuit.
