UNSPSC 85224003: Diagnosis of trichuriasis

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a diagnosis of Trichuriasis. Trichurias 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 B79

UNSPSC 85224003 Diagnosis of trichuriasis is a Commodity code whose nominal scope — laboratory diagnosis of parasitic infection — bears no relation to the recent state and local opportunities posted under it. The three most recent solicitations tagged to this code span diagnostic imaging systems (PACS), ultrasound equipment, and phlebotomy services. None involves trichuriasis testing or parasitic diagnosis. The code shows a fundamental mismatch between its taxonomy label and current procurement activity, suggesting either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or a legacy taxonomy assignment disconnected from working procurement practice.

The opportunities originate from a hospital system, a county health services procurement division, and a municipal police department across three states — California, Florida, and New Mexico — spanning the twelve months ending July 2026. San Mateo Medical Center posted an RFP for enterprise PACS implementation with an August 7, 2026 response deadline; Collier County, Florida issued a Notice of Intent to Single Source EchoNous ultrasound equipment with a March 26, 2026 deadline; and the Albuquerque Police Department issued an RFB for on-call phlebotomy services with a February 25, 2026 deadline. No meaningful procurement signal exists under this code for vendors aligned with parasitic or tropical disease diagnostics.
