The United Nations Standard Product & Services Codes (UNSPSC) are detailed codes, required for NZ Healthcare Data Recipients and for all Australian Recipients (v25.0901)
UNSPSC versions19 & 25 are used by both Australia and NZ Healthcare Recipients, however for Healthcare in New Zealand, NPC users are being asked to update to version 25 whenever they add new items or make changes to existing items
For v25, a short list has been created and this is restricted to Lab, Medical Devices and Medicinel codes only - i.e. 41000000 range, 42000000 range and 51000000 range
All NZ and Australian Data Recipients have requested the Commodity (lowest) level of the codes be entered in the NPC.
If you cannot find the UNSPSC that best fits your products, please contact our Support Center as the UNSPSC website only allows you to search the latest version - i.e. v26.0801 at present.
