UNSPSC 85871128: Computerized tomography (ct scan) of cisterna using low osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to computerized tomography (ct scan) of cisterna using low osmolar contrast. This intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code B0271ZZ

UNSPSC 85871128 Computerized tomography (CT scan) of cisterna using low osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that describes a specific radiological diagnostic service, yet the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it do not align with procurement of this narrow imaging modality. Instead, the opportunities reflect broader health system and school district contracting for diagnostic imaging infrastructure, temporary clinical staffing, and special education services—none of which directly match the code's nominal scope of a particular CT imaging procedure using specified contrast media. The mismatch suggests either upstream classification drift or tagging inconsistency in the source systems. State and local procurement under this code, when properly aligned with the nominal scope, would target imaging centers, hospitals, clinics, and diagnostic facilities seeking the specific procedure or related radiological services. Issuing bodies would typically include county health departments, public hospital systems, and integrated health care districts.

The three recent opportunities posted between July and October 2026 span California and Texas health systems and a Texas school district, but none solicits CT imaging services or imaging modalities directly. San Mateo Medical Center (posted October 7, 2026, RFP due October 21, 2026) is procuring enterprise-grade Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) infrastructure supporting radiology, cardiology, and mammography across 65,000+ annual imaging studies; Santa Clara County Health System (posted July 7, 2026, RFQ due October 7, 2026) is establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing in diagnostic imaging and other ancillary clinical categories; and Birdville Independent School District (posted September 18, 2026, RFQ due October 21, 2026) is soliciting special education contracted services including speech and occupational therapy. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated scope.
