NIGP Code 948-00 — Health Related Services (Medical, Nursing, Behavioral, and Public Health) — is a standardized State, Local, and Education (SLED) procurement classification within Class 948 — Health Related Services of the National Institute of Governmental Purchasing (NIGP) Commodity/Services Code taxonomy. Across all 50 states, over 33 state central purchasing offices and thousands of county governments, municipal utilities, public university systems, transit authorities, and K-12 school districts obligate approximately $14.2 Billion annually under NIGP 948-00, generating 840+ Bids active Invitations for Bid (IFBs), Requests for Proposals (RFPs), and informal quote requests each year. The NIGP taxonomy uses a hierarchical structure where the 3-digit Class (948) identifies the broad commodity or service family (Health Related Services) and the 5-digit Class-Item code (948-00) pinpoints the specific service (healthcare) deliverable. When state and municipal buyers post solicitations on portals such as California Cal eProcure (CDCR/DHCS), Texas ESBD (HHSC/TDCJ), New York NYSCR (OMH/DOCCS), and Florida MFMP, automated bid invitations are dispatched exclusively to vendors who have added NIGP Class 948 and Item 948-00 to their supplier registration profiles.
