UNSPSC 85871512: Plain radiography of left single mammary duct using high osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to plain radiography of left single mammary duct 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 BH040ZZ

UNSPSC 85871512 Plain radiography of left single mammary duct using high osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that shows limited alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific diagnostic imaging procedure using contrast media, but the recent opportunities posted under this code do not match the procedure's narrow scope. State and local buyers soliciting under this code are predominantly large public health systems and school districts, not imaging service providers or equipment suppliers purchasing contrast agents or performing individual radiographic procedures. San Mateo Medical Center is soliciting a Diagnostic Imaging PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) implementation — an enterprise software and data-migration project serving radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging across the health system. Birdville Independent School District is requesting special education contracted services including speech language therapy, occupational therapy, and related disciplines. Santa Clara County Health System is establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing, including Diagnostic Imaging/Radiology among thirteen ancillary clinical categories. None of these opportunities align with purchasing high-osmolar contrast media or conducting plain mammography studies.

The geographic spread of recent activity centers on California (San Mateo County and Santa Clara County) and Texas (Tarrant County), but the code itself shows no coherent recent purchasing pattern specific to mammographic contrast procedures or related imaging supplies. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests this code may be misapplied in state and local procurement systems or sees minimal relevant transactional activity. Business development professionals should verify whether opportunities posted under this code genuinely reflect contrast-media procurement or imaging services, or whether the classification is a data artifact. The representative opportunities posted — SMMC's PACS implementation (RFP, due October 21, 2026), Birdville ISD's special education services (competitive sealed proposal, due October 21, 2026), and Santa Clara County's health professional staffing pool (non-exclusive multiple-award RFQ, due October 7, 2026) — involve no direct procurement of mammographic contrast or related diagnostic imaging supplies.
