UNSPSC 42201810: Medical x ray films or cassettes

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that is either the film used in medical x ray procedures or the protective cases for such film in a medical setting. US FDA regulates Medical x ray films or cassettes under 21 CFR 892.1640 and under FDA product code JAC. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 902214.

UNSPSC 42201810 Medical x ray films or cassettes is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to tag acquisitions of imaging equipment and related diagnostic devices for healthcare delivery and clinical training. Recent solicitations under this code reflect purchases of specialized digital imaging technology rather than traditional film stock. Valencia College's School of Allied Health is procuring 4 iTero Lumina Scanners (intraoral 3D imaging devices for dental and orthodontic education) through a sole source acquisition, while the Washington State Department of Transportation, on behalf of the Washington State Ferries, is seeking occupational medical surveillance services that include physician-administered medical examinations and evaluations. The issuing bodies span educational institutions and state departments with healthcare or occupational health functions.

Recent activity shows two distinct geographic and institutional bases: Florida, where a public higher-education institution (Valencia College) sourced specialized dental imaging equipment; and Washington State, where a state transportation department procured occupational medical services. The Washington State Ferries RFP (RFP20260825), due October 9, 2026, is seeking a contractor to conduct baseline, periodic, follow-up, and exit medical examinations for shipyard workers, engine crew, deck crew, and asbestos team members across 14 Washington locations, with examinations performed by or under supervision of a physician board-certified in occupational medicine and results delivered within 60 days. The Valencia College sole source notice (SS202620, due November 27, 2025) valued the iTero Lumina Scanner acquisition at $143,196.00 for the four units. The code shows limited recent activity; the represented opportunities diverge significantly in scope (dental imaging equipment versus occupational health services), suggesting the code may be misapplied in these postings or that state and local tagging practices do not align tightly with the nominal scope of medical x-ray films or cassettes.
