UNSPSC 85442906: The diagnosis of contact with marine animal

In this classification, this covers the group of activities that yields a diagnosis of contact with marine animal. Contact with marine animal 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 W56.

UNSPSC 85442906 The diagnosis of contact with marine animal is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with state and local procurement activity. The three most recent opportunities posted under this code span diagnostic imaging infrastructure (a PACS system deployment), special education contracted services (audiologists, diagnosticians, therapists), and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories. None of these solicitations involve marine animal contact diagnosis, which is the literal scope of the code. The opportunities instead reflect healthcare service delivery — imaging systems, school-based evaluation and therapy, and clinical staffing — that state and local purchasing offices have tagged with this code despite the mismatch between the tag and the actual work.

The issuing bodies are San Mateo Medical Center (a county public hospital system in California), Birdville Independent School District (a Texas school district), and Santa Clara County Health System (California). Geographic activity centers on California and Texas. San Mateo Medical Center's RFP for Diagnostic Imaging PACS, due October 21, 2026, seeks enterprise-grade radiology and cardiology imaging migration from legacy systems with EPIC integration and 99.9% uptime requirements. Birdville ISD's competitive sealed proposal for special education contracted services, also due October 21, 2026, covers 23 line items including audiology, speech language therapy, and board certified behavior analysis across 30 campuses, with a December 1, 2026 start date and three one-year renewal options. Santa Clara County Health System's non-exclusive, multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing, due October 7, 2026, maintains a five-year qualified vendor list for ancillary categories including audiology, diagnostic imaging, and therapy services. The code itself does not appear to reflect genuine procurement need in the marine animal diagnostic space.
