UNSPSC 42203603 Medical picture archiving computer systems PACS, a Commodity code, covers diagnostic imaging software platforms and integrated radiology information systems that state and local governments acquire to support medical imaging workflows, electronic health records integration, and clinical decision support. The recent solicitations show a mix of health services procurement spanning public hospital systems, infectious disease treatment centers, and health department operations. Work currently being solicited includes cloud-based diagnostic viewers with specific volumetric capacity (CT/MRI studies per year), radiology information systems (RIS) with workflow management, gateway and broker services for EMR integration and modality worklist provisioning, remote application training and support, and archival repositories for claims and remittance data supporting hospital billing and claims processing operations. State and local buyers under this code include state health departments (Texas Department of State Health Services), county medical centers and hospital systems (San Mateo Medical Center), and specialized public health facilities (Texas Center for Infectious Disease). The issuing-body mix spans state-level health and human services procurement offices, county health systems, and specialized clinical departments within larger public hospital networks.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and California. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) Procurement and Contracting Services division issued IFB No. HHS0017153 on March 20, 2026, for PaxeraHealth PaxeraUltimaAI-Cloud software solutions including diagnostic viewer, RIS, gateway, and broker components with five-year term and firm fixed pricing, with proposals due April 6, 2026 at 10:30 AM Central Time; the incumbent contract was valued at $79,125.00 over the prior five-year period. The County of San Mateo issued RFP 660002526235 on March 11, 2026, for an Archive Remit and Claim Repository supporting San Mateo Medical Center's electronic claims and remittance workflows, requiring SAML v.2.0 protocol compliance, $5,000,000 cyber liability insurance, U.S.-based data residency, and five-year contract term, with proposals due March 11, 2026 at 1:00 p.m.; the County's local preference ordinance provides five percent preferential points for local businesses and three to five percent for small or micro businesses. A third opportunity unrelated to PACS imaging scope—a Phoenix Water Services Department control system integrator RFQ posted June 22, 2026, with qualifications due June 19, 2026—appears misfiled under this code and does not reflect current PACS procurement activity.
