UNSPSC 85216601: Diagnosis of q fever

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a diagnosis of Q fever. Q fever is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as a three digit category under code A 78

UNSPSC 85216601 Diagnosis of q fever is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code show no direct alignment with q fever diagnostic testing. Instead, the posted solicitations involve health system infrastructure, special education services, and clinical staffing — none of which relate to q fever diagnosis or infectious disease serology. The code shows little relevant recent activity for its nominal scope.

The three opportunities on record — San Mateo Medical Center's Diagnostic Imaging PACS system (RFP, due October 21, 2026), Birdville Independent School District's special education contracted services (competitive sealed proposal, due October 21, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System's temporary health professional staffing pool (multiple-award qualification vehicle, due October 7, 2026) — appear to have been tagged with this code in error or through a broad categorical mapping that does not reflect the specificity of q fever serology services. Business development professionals should verify whether this code is actively used by state and local procurement offices for actual diagnostic testing services; if so, direct outreach to state health departments, county public health agencies, and regional hospital systems may surface genuine opportunities that are not yet appearing in published solicitation records.
