NIGP Code 948-48 — Home Health Care, Physical Therapy, and Rehabilitation Services — 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 $3.2 Billion annually under NIGP 948-48, generating 460+ 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 (948-48) pinpoints the specific service (rehab/home care) deliverable. When state and municipal buyers post solicitations on portals such as Texas ESBD & ISDs, California Cal eProcure, New York NYSCR, and Pennsylvania eMarketplace, automated bid invitations are dispatched exclusively to vendors who have added NIGP Class 948 and Item 948-48 to their supplier registration profiles.
