UNSPSC 85353102: Diagnosis of lichen nitidus

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a diagnosis of Lichen nitidus. Lichen nitidus 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 L44. 1

UNSPSC 85353102 Diagnosis of lichen nitidus is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and actual state and local procurement activity. The code's medical taxonomy label refers to dermatological diagnosis, yet the three recent opportunities posted under it reflect diagnostic imaging systems, ultrasound equipment procurement, and phlebotomy services—none of which constitute diagnosis of lichen nitidus in any meaningful sense. State and local health care systems, county hospitals, and law enforcement agencies are sourcing these opportunities, but the mismatch between code assignment and work scope suggests either metadata inconsistency in the underlying state and local procurement databases or categorical tagging errors at the point of solicitation posting.

The recent opportunities span San Mateo County, California (a diagnostic imaging PACS implementation via RFP with an August 7, 2026 response date), Collier County, Florida (a single-source ultrasound equipment notice posted April 1, 2026), and Albuquerque, New Mexico (an on-call phlebotomy services RFB with a February 25, 2026 response date). The code exhibits no meaningful recent activity in dermatological or lichen-nitidus-specific diagnosis services. Procurement professionals evaluating opportunities under this code should verify the UNSPSC assignment with the issuing body's procurement office, as the posted opportunities do not reflect the code's stated commodity definition.
