UNSPSC 85213801: Diagnosis of meningococcal meningitis

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a diagnosis of Meningococcal meningitis. Meningococcal meningitis 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 A39. 0

UNSPSC 85213801 Diagnosis of meningococcal meningitis, a Commodity code, shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code is indexed to a specific infectious-disease diagnostic test, yet the three recent opportunities tagged under it involve diagnostic imaging systems, special education contracted services, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with meningococcal meningitis testing. The state and local procurement market shows little relevant recent activity under this code's actual scope.

The misalignment reflects how state and local agencies sometimes apply UNSPSC codes inconsistently or broadly when cataloging health services procurement. Bidders should verify coding accuracy against actual RFP and RFQ scope statements before committing resources to pursuit under this code. The opportunities present — San Mateo Medical Center's PACS implementation (RFP, due October 21, 2026), Birdville Independent School District's special education contractor pool (due October 21, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System's temporary health professional staffing qualification vehicle (due October 7, 2026) — represent health-system purchasing in California and Texas, but do not constitute genuine demand for meningococcal meningitis diagnostic services at the state and local level.
