UNSPSC 85264701: Diagnosis of obesity due to excess calories

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a diagnosis of Obesity due to excess calories. Obesity due to excess calories 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 E66. 0

UNSPSC 85264701 Diagnosis of obesity due to excess calories, a Commodity code, shows a material disconnect between its nominal clinical scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's definition centers on obesity diagnosis services, yet the three most recent opportunities posted under it involve diagnostic imaging system procurement (San Mateo Medical Center PACS implementation), school district special education contracting (Birdville Independent School District), and health system temporary staffing for ancillary clinical roles (County of Santa Clara Health System). Only the San Mateo opportunity touches imaging-related diagnostics; the other two fall outside obesity diagnosis scope entirely. This classification mismatch suggests the code is either being misapplied by issuing bodies or carries broader diagnostic-service connotations than its name implies in practice.

The recent activity spans two states: California (San Mateo County and Santa Clara County health systems) and Texas (Birdville Independent School District in northeast Tarrant County). San Mateo Medical Center posted an RFP due October 21, 2026 for enterprise-grade diagnostic imaging PACS with EPIC integration, requiring vendor experience in public sector or large health system PACS implementations and three to five client references; the contract term runs five years with a 9–12 month implementation window. Santa Clara Health System posted a qualification-based RFQ closing October 7, 2026 to establish a five-year qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories including audiology, diagnostic imaging, and therapy services, with no guaranteed work volume and case-by-case negotiation of scope. Birdville ISD's special education contracting RFP (due October 21, 2026) bears no direct relation to obesity diagnosis or medical imaging. Without additional opportunities clearly aligned to the code's stated clinical focus, this code warrants verification of proper UNSPSC classification before resource allocation.
