UNSPSC 85216602: Diagnoses of dengue fever or classical dengue

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a diagnosis of Dengue fever or classical dengue. Dengue fever or classical dengue 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 90

UNSPSC 85216602 Diagnoses of dengue fever or classical dengue is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The three most recent opportunities tagged under this code—a diagnostic imaging PACS system upgrade at San Mateo Medical Center, special education contracted services at Birdville Independent School District, and temporary health professional staffing at Santa Clara County Health System—address hospital information systems, school support services, and clinical staffing respectively, none of which involve dengue fever diagnosis or infectious disease testing. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either systematic miscoding in the source data or that the code itself is rarely used by state and local procurement offices for the services it purports to describe.

State and local buyers do not appear to be actively soliciting dengue diagnostic services through this taxonomy code at present. Practitioners should verify whether this code is actively used by their target jurisdictions or whether related clinical laboratory and diagnostic services fall under alternative UNSPSC families or commodity codes within the health care or laboratory testing tiers.
