UNSPSC 85265601: Diagnosis of pure hypercholesterolaemia

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a diagnosis of Pure hypercholesterolaemia. Pure hypercholesterolaemia 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 E78. 0

UNSPSC 85265601 Diagnosis of pure hypercholesterolaemia, a Commodity code, shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's taxonomic definition targets clinical laboratory diagnosis of lipid disorders; however, the three most recent opportunities posted under it actually solicit diagnostic imaging infrastructure (PACS systems), ultrasound equipment, and phlebotomy services — none of which directly address hypercholesterolaemia screening or diagnosis. The opportunities reflect broader diagnostic and clinical support services that state and local health systems are sourcing, suggesting the code may be used as a catch-all for diagnostic-service procurements that do not fit neatly into specialized UNSPSC categories. State and local health authorities — San Mateo County Medical Center in California, Collier County in Florida, and the Albuquerque Police Department in New Mexico — are the issuing bodies on record, representing a mix of county health systems and law enforcement agencies with clinical support needs.

San Mateo County Medical Center posted an RFP on July 9, 2026 (due August 7, 2026) for a diagnostic imaging PACS system supporting approximately 65,000 annual radiology studies, 5,000 cardiology studies, and 8,000 mammography interpretations, with requirements for 99.9% uptime, EPIC Electronic Health Record integration, and 9–12 month implementation. Collier County, Florida issued a Notice of Intent to single-source EchoNous, Inc. for KOSMOS ultrasound platform equipment with a five-year warranty (March 26, 2026). The Albuquerque Police Department issued an RFB on January 26, 2026 (due February 25, 2026) for on-call phlebotomy services covering approximately 300 annual blood draws across Bernalillo County. Activity is concentrated in Western and Southwestern states; no recent opportunities appear in the Midwest or Northeast. The code shows minimal relevant recent activity — the three posted opportunities do not align with the code's stated purpose, indicating either systematic miscoding by issuing agencies or that this particular UNSPSC category is not actively used for its intended diagnostic screening function in current state and local procurement.
