UNSPSC 85426004: The diagnosis of injury of multiple blood vessels at forearm level

In this classification, this covers the group of activities that yields a diagnosis of injury of multiple blood vessels at forearm level. Injury of multiple blood vessels at forearm level 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 S55.7.

UNSPSC 85426004 (Diagnosis of injury of multiple blood vessels at forearm level), a Commodity code, shows a substantial mismatch between its abstract medical diagnostic classification and the state and local opportunities currently tagged to it. The recent solicitations under this code do not involve diagnosis of vascular injuries; instead, they cover diagnostic imaging systems infrastructure (Picture Archiving and Communication Systems), special education contracted services (audiologists, diagnosticians, speech language therapists, occupational and physical therapists), and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories including radiology and diagnostic imaging. The code's nominal scope—clinical diagnosis of a specific injury type—bears no meaningful connection to these procurement activities. State and local governments are not buying diagnostic services for forearm vascular injuries under this code; the tagging appears to reflect a cataloging error rather than intentional procurement strategy.

The issuing bodies include a county-operated medical center (San Mateo Medical Center in San Mateo County, California), a school district (Birdville Independent School District in northeast Texas), and a county health system (Santa Clara County Health System in California). Recent opportunities span California and Texas. San Mateo Medical Center posted an RFP on October 7, 2026 for enterprise-grade Diagnostic Imaging PACS implementation with a response deadline of October 21, 2026, requiring EPIC integration and support for 65,000 annual radiology studies. Santa Clara County Health System issued an RFQ on July 7, 2026 for a non-exclusive qualified vendor pool in temporary health professional staffing, with response due October 7, 2026. Birdville Independent School District solicited competitive sealed proposals on September 18, 2026 for special education contracted services due October 21, 2026, covering 23 line items across multiple disciplines. Given the disconnect between the code's stated definition and actual procurement activity, the code should be treated as unreliable for targeting; opportunities are best identified through direct keyword search rather than UNSPSC classification.
