UNSPSC 85224002: Diagnoses of ascariasis with intestinal complications

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a diagnosis of Ascariasis with intestinal complications. Ascariasis with intestinal complications 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 B77. 0

UNSPSC 85224002 Diagnoses of ascariasis with intestinal complications (Commodity) shows a mismatch between its nominal scope—parasitic infection diagnosis—and the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code. The three most recent solicitations posted in the past three months are a diagnostic imaging PACS system implementation, special education contracted services, and temporary health professional staffing services. None involve parasitic disease diagnosis or treatment. The code appears to see little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement, and the opportunities present do not align with the code's stated clinical focus.

No state and local contract opportunities matching the code's intended scope of ascariasis diagnosis have posted recently. The three records tagged to this code represent unrelated health system procurements. This suggests either a data-classification error in the source system or the code's disuse in current state and local purchasing activity. A business development professional evaluating this code should verify the code assignment before committing pursuit resources.
