UNSPSC 85413902: The diagnosis of aphonia

In this classification, this covers the group of activities that yields a diagnosis of aphonia. Aphonia 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 R49.1.

UNSPSC 85413902 The diagnosis of aphonia, a Commodity code, appears in state and local health care procurement but shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope — clinical diagnosis of voice loss — and the actual work being solicited under it. The three most recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code involve diagnostic imaging system implementation, school-based special education contracting, and health professional temporary staffing, none of which directly address aphonia diagnosis. San Mateo Medical Center's Diagnostic Imaging PACS solicitation (RFP 660002526251, due October 21, 2026) seeks enterprise-grade picture archiving and communication system implementation supporting radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging with EPIC integration; Birdville Independent School District's special education services RFP (01027, due October 21, 2026) requests as-needed contracted services across 23 line items including speech language therapy, audiology, and diagnostician support; and Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing RFQ (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) establishes a qualified vendor pool for ancillary clinical categories including audiology, diagnostic imaging, and therapy services. The issuing bodies span county health systems, independent school districts, and public hospital networks across California and Texas.

Recent activity under this code does not reflect aphonia-specific diagnosis work. The code shows little relevant recent procurement activity aligned to its stated commodity scope; the opportunities currently tagged to it address broader health system infrastructure, educational services, and clinical staffing rather than targeted diagnostic services for voice disorders. Geographic activity appears concentrated in California (San Mateo County, Santa Clara County) and Texas (Tarrant County), though the mismatch between code definition and actual solicitations suggests either a tagging error in the underlying procurement notices or a code that sees limited, sporadic use in state and local contracting for its nominal purpose.
