UNSPSC 85252863: Diagnosis of histiocytic sarcoma

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a diagnosis of Histiocytic sarcoma. Histiocytic sarcoma 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 C96. 8

UNSPSC 85252863 Diagnosis of histiocytic sarcoma, a Commodity code, shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes pathology diagnosis services for a rare form of cancer, yet the three most recent opportunities posted under this code span diagnostic imaging systems (Picture Archiving and Communication Systems), ultrasound equipment procurement, and phlebotomy blood draw services — none of which are histiocytic sarcoma diagnosis. The mismatch suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or the code being used as a catch-all for clinical diagnostic and laboratory services. State and local health systems, county medical centers, and law enforcement agencies are the issuing bodies, representing public hospitals, county procurement divisions, and municipal police departments rather than specialty pathology labs or oncology centers.

Geographic activity appears concentrated in California and Florida, with one opportunity from New Mexico. San Mateo Medical Center (a county public hospital system) issued an RFP for enterprise-grade diagnostic imaging PACS with proposals due August 7, 2026, requiring EPIC integration, migration from legacy ScImage systems, and HIPAA compliance, with evaluation weighted toward project approach (30 points), firm qualifications (25 points), team qualifications (20 points), and price (25 points). Collier County, Florida posted a Notice of Intent to Single Source EchoNous, Inc. for KOSMOS platform ultrasound equipment and a five-year warranty through March 25, 2028. The Albuquerque Police Department issued an RFB for on-call phlebotomy technician services with 24/7 coverage across Bernalillo County and response within one hour, due February 25, 2026, with award potentially made to the lowest-cost bidder. No repeat buyers appear in the recent activity block, and no standard state or local set-asides are noted across the three opportunities, though San Mateo County applied a 5–10% local preference under its ordinance.
