UNSPSC 85212204: Diagnosis of tuberculosis of larynx, trachea and bronchus, without mention of bacteriological or histological confirmation

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a diagnosis of Tuberculosis of larynx, trachea and bronchus, without mention of bacteriological or histological confirmation. Tuberculosis of larynx, trachea and bronchus, without mention of bacteriological or histological confirmation is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as a four digit category under code A16. 4

UNSPSC 85212204, a Commodity code nominally titled "Diagnosis of tuberculosis of larynx, trachea and bronchus, without mention of bacteriological or histological confirmation," shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The three most recent opportunities tagged to this code—a diagnostic imaging PACS system implementation at San Mateo Medical Center, special education contracted services at Birdville Independent School District, and temporary health professional staffing for Santa Clara County Health System—fall substantially outside the code's clinical diagnostic scope and do not align with tuberculosis testing or respiratory diagnostics. The mismatch suggests either coding error at the issuing bodies or that the code is not actively used for state and local health care procurement in this category.

No representative procurement activity under this code's actual scope is present in the recent opportunities block. Business development professionals evaluating this code should verify whether state and local health departments, hospital systems, or clinical laboratories are actively procuring tuberculosis diagnostic services, tests, or equipment through other UNSPSC classifications, or whether this commodity remains dormant in state and local contracting.
