UNSPSC 85352601: Diagnosis of lichen simplex chronicus

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a diagnosis of Lichen simplex chronicus. Lichen simplex chronicus 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 L28. 0

UNSPSC 85352601 Diagnosis of lichen simplex chronicus is a Commodity code showing a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and actual state and local purchasing activity. The code's name refers to a specific dermatological condition diagnosis, yet recent solicitations under this code involve diagnostic imaging systems, ultrasound equipment, and phlebotomy services — clinical support and diagnostic infrastructure rather than diagnosis of a single skin condition. State and local health systems, county medical centers, and police departments are the primary issuing bodies posting opportunities under this code. The scope of work actually being solicited ranges from enterprise-grade Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS) serving radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging with EPIC Electronic Health Record integration, to specialized ultrasound platforms and on-call phlebotomy technician services. These purchases reflect diagnostic and specimen-collection support for broader health system operations, not the narrow dermatological diagnosis the code nominally describes.

Recent activity spans California, Florida, and New Mexico. San Mateo Medical Center posted an RFP for Diagnostic Imaging PACS (due August 7, 2026) requiring enterprise-grade implementation supporting 65,000 annual radiology studies with 99.9% uptime, 9–12 month implementation, EPIC integration, and HIPAA Business Associate Agreement compliance, with evaluation weighted toward project approach (30 points), firm qualifications (25 points), team qualifications (20 points), and price (25 points). Collier County, Florida issued a Notice of Intent to single-source EchoNous, Inc. for KOSMOS ultrasound equipment with a five-year product warranty and custom carrying bag (contract term March 26, 2026 to March 25, 2028). The Albuquerque Police Department posted an RFB for on-call blood draw services (due February 25, 2026) seeking 24/7 coverage across Bernalillo County with approximately 300 annual calls and a three-year initial term renewable for two additional one-year periods. The code shows little coherent recent activity aligned with its stated purpose; procurement professionals should verify issuing-body intent before pursuing opportunities tagged under this code.
