UNSPSC 85413404: The diagnosis of unspecified disturbances of smell and taste

In this classification, this covers the group of activities that yields a diagnosis of other and unspecified disturbances of smell and taste. Other and unspecified disturbances of smell and taste is listed In The World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD-10) as a four-character category under code R43.8.

UNSPSC 85413404, Diagnosis of unspecified disturbances of smell and taste, is a Commodity code with minimal recent activity directly aligned to its nominal scope. The three most recent state and local opportunities posted under this code involve diagnostic imaging PACS systems, special education contracted services, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which address olfactory or gustatory diagnostic services. The code shows little relevant recent procurement activity; the mismatch between the code's clinical descriptor and the actual work being solicited suggests either tagging misalignment in state and local systems or that smell and taste disorder diagnostics are procured under other taxonomy codes or bundled into broader clinical service lines.

Recent opportunities appear isolated across different service domains and geographies rather than concentrated under coherent work streams. San Mateo Medical Center (SMMC) in California posted an RFP for Diagnostic Imaging PACS due October 21, 2026, requiring enterprise-grade system migration and EPIC integration; Birdville Independent School District in northeast Texas posted an RFQ for special education contracted services due the same date, covering 23 line items including audiology and speech therapy; and the County of Santa Clara Health System in California posted an RFQ due October 7, 2026 establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories including audiology but excluding nursing and physician services. The code does not support actionable bidding guidance under its stated scope.
