UNSPSC 42183403: Fundus cameras

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as an apparatus for photographing the fundus of the eye through the use of a camera in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 852880.

UNSPSC 42183403 Fundus cameras (Commodity) shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The three most recent opportunities posted under this code are plainly unrelated to ophthalmic imaging equipment: Kissimmee Utility Authority's IFB for a precision high-voltage capacitance test module (OMICRON CP TD12), the City of Tampa's RFQ for a Heck DR4900 spectrophotometer replacement at its McKay Bay Waste to Energy facility, and Sourcewell's RFP for law enforcement equipment on behalf of multiple Washington counties and other public entities nationwide. These solicitations span utility testing apparatus, water-quality measurement instrumentation, and police equipment—none of which fit the code's intended category.

The code presents no recent, relevant state and local purchasing activity. Fundus camera procurement, if occurring within this jurisdiction spectrum, is not currently reflected in recent UNSPSC 42183403 tagging. Practitioners evaluating this code should verify whether state and local health departments, hospital networks, or school district health services are procuring fundus cameras under different UNSPSC classifications or whether the low frequency of such purchases has simply not yet generated recent postings under this specific code.
