UNSPSC 85871138: Computerized tomography (ct scan) of brain using high osmolar contrast, unenhanced and enhanced

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to computerized tomography (ct scan) of brain using high osmolar contrast, unenhanced and enhancedcomputerized tomography (ct scan) of brain using high osmolar contrast, unenhanced and enhanced. 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 B02000Z

UNSPSC 85871138 Computerized tomography (CT scan) of brain using high osmolar contrast, unenhanced and enhanced is a Commodity code. The recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code does not reflect diagnostic imaging services as the code name suggests; instead, the three posted opportunities span diagnostic imaging information systems (PACS implementation), special education contracted services (speech language therapy, occupational therapy, and related ancillary clinical roles), and temporary health professional staffing across multiple clinical categories including diagnostic imaging and therapy services. The actual buying pattern under this code reflects a mismatch between the nominal UNSPSC classification and the work being solicited. When opportunities do align with clinical imaging or health professional services, state and local buyers are procuring system infrastructure, staffing pools, and contracted clinical labor rather than the specific CT imaging procedure named in the code itself.

The issuing bodies include county health systems, public hospital networks, and school districts. The County of Santa Clara Health System and San Mateo Medical Center (a public hospital system in San Mateo County, California) are seeking imaging and ancillary health professional services; Birdville Independent School District in northeast Tarrant County, Texas, is seeking special education contracted services with no direct connection to diagnostic imaging. Geographic activity centers on California (Santa Clara and San Mateo counties) and Texas (Tarrant County). Representative opportunities include San Mateo Medical Center's RFP for a Diagnostic Imaging PACS with proposals due October 21, 2026, requiring enterprise-grade system implementation with EPIC integration and migration from the incumbent ScImage system; the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive, multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (including Diagnostic Imaging/Radiology) with proposals due October 7, 2026; and Birdville Independent School District's RFP for special education contracted services due October 21, 2026. The code shows limited recent activity with clear nominal-to-actual scope misalignment.
