UNSPSC 85871435: Computerized tomography (ct scan) of abdomen using high osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to computerized tomography (ct scan) of abdomen using high 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 BW200ZZ

UNSPSC 85871435 Computerized tomography (CT scan) of abdomen using high osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that describes diagnostic imaging services using contrast-enhanced CT technology; however, the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not align with this narrow clinical scope. Instead, the opportunities reflect a broader and more commercially active procurement pattern: health systems and public safety agencies are soliciting diagnostic imaging infrastructure, equipment, and ancillary clinical services including Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS), ultrasound platforms, and phlebotomy support. The mismatch between the code's nominal definition and actual procurement activity suggests the code is being applied as a catch-all category for diagnostic imaging and clinical laboratory services at the institutional level rather than as a specific CT modality. Issuing bodies include county hospital systems (San Mateo Medical Center), county health and safety agencies (Collier County), and municipal law enforcement (Albuquerque Police Department). The work being solicited ranges from enterprise-scale PACS implementations supporting 65,000+ annual radiology studies, to single-source ultrasound equipment procurements, to on-call phlebotomy services.

Recent activity spans California and Florida at the county level and New Mexico at the city level. San Mateo County Medical Center posted an RFP for Diagnostic Imaging PACS on July 9, 2026, with an August 7, 2026 proposal deadline, seeking a five-year agreement to migrate imaging data from legacy systems and support 100 concurrent users with 99.9% uptime; proposals are evaluated on project approach (30 points), firm qualifications (25 points), team qualifications (20 points), and price (25 points), with a 5–10% local preference available. Collier County, Florida issued a Notice of Intent to Single Source EchoNous, Inc. for ultrasound equipment and accessories on April 1, 2026, with a March 26, 2026 submission deadline for competing vendors. The Albuquerque Police Department posted an RFB for on-call blood draw services on January 26, 2026, with a February 25, 2026 deadline, anticipating approximately 300 service calls annually across a three-year initial term renewable for two additional one-year periods. All three solicitations impose compliance requirements including HIPAA, local prevailing wage or living wage ordinances, and specialized credentialing (PACS vendor EPIC integration experience; phlebotomy certification).
