UNSPSC 85822810: Measurement of arterial pulse, peripheral, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a measurement intervention or procedure to measurement of arterial pulse, peripheral, external approach. This measurement 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 4A03XJ1

UNSPSC 85822810 Measurement of arterial pulse, peripheral, external approach is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned to its nominal scope. The recent opportunities posted under this code reflect a significant mismatch: sources describe virtual urgent care services, comprehensive medical services, nursing home operations, cancer registry and screening services, employee wellness programs, occupational health assessments, EMT staffing, psychiatric evaluations, recovery audit services, and opioid use disorder treatment—none of which constitute peripheral pulse measurement or arterial pulse assessment as standalone clinical services. The code appears to have been applied to broadly categorized healthcare services procurement rather than to specialized diagnostic or measurement procedures. State and local buyers posting under this code span state health authorities (Nevada Health Authority), county health systems (Santa Clara, San Mateo, Brevard, Boulder, Seminole, Forsyth, Cobb, DeKalb, Jackson), municipal departments (City of Phoenix, City of Ocala, City of Atlanta), and school districts (Parkway School District), with no repeat buyer concentrations evident in the recent window. Geographic spread is dispersed across California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Missouri, Nevada, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Texas, and Virginia.

Recent representative opportunities include the Nevada Health Authority's RFP 41NHA-S4038 for Program of All Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) operations across Nevada (proposals due December 10, 2026), which encompasses comprehensive geriatric services including physician services and multidisciplinary assessment but not pulse measurement as a discrete service; San Mateo Medical Center's RFP for Handheld Retinal Screening Devices and Services (proposals due November 6, 2026), focused on portable imaging and EPIC integration; and the City of Phoenix's RFP for cancer screening services for 14,000 city employees (proposals due February 2, 2026), covering dermatology, imaging, and laboratory work. The Inland Empire Health Plan's RFI for Virtual Urgent Care Services (responses due October 31, 2026) sought 24/7/365 telehealth-based evaluation and management through California board-certified physicians. None of these opportunities center on peripheral arterial pulse measurement as a primary or standalone service line. The code shows little substantive recent activity in its nominal domain; procurement professionals should verify code classification before pursuing opportunities posted under this number.
