UNSPSC 85871656: Plain radiography of thoraco-abdominal aorta using other contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to plain radiography of thoraco-abdominal aorta using other 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 B30PYZZ

UNSPSC 85871656 Plain radiography of thoraco-abdominal aorta using other contrast, a Commodity code, shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific radiological imaging procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under it do not reflect procurement of that service. Instead, state and local health systems are soliciting for diagnostic imaging infrastructure and staffing — PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) platform implementation, temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories including diagnostic imaging and radiology, and special education contracted services unrelated to the code's scope. The mismatch suggests the code was applied to opportunities where its nominal scope does not match the actual work being bought, or the opportunities were tagged incorrectly by the issuing bodies.

The issuing bodies posting under this code include a county public hospital system (San Mateo Medical Center, operated by San Mateo County), a county health system (Santa Clara County Health System), and an independent school district (Birdville ISD in Texas). Geographic activity spans California and Texas. Recent opportunities include San Mateo Medical Center's RFP for Diagnostic Imaging PACS due October 21, 2026, which seeks enterprise-grade imaging system implementation with EPIC integration to support approximately 65,000 radiology studies, 5,000 cardiology studies, and 8,000 mammography interpretations annually; Santa Clara County Health System's qualification-vehicle RFP for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories including diagnostic imaging and radiology, due October 7, 2026, with no guaranteed work and a five-year qualified list term; and Birdville ISD's proposal for special education contracted services due October 21, 2026, which is entirely unrelated to diagnostic imaging. The code shows little relevant recent activity and does not appear to be a useful targeting vector for firms pursuing state and local contracts in medical imaging services.
