UNSPSC 85872125: Computerized tomography (ct scan) of left lower extremity arteries using high osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to computerized tomography (ct scan) of left lower extremity arteries 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 B42G0ZZ

UNSPSC 85872125 Computerized tomography (ct scan) of left lower extremity arteries using high osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that does not correspond to the work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific diagnostic imaging procedure—bears no relation to the three recent opportunities posted under this code: a comprehensive Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) procurement, a single-source ultrasound equipment acquisition, and an on-call phlebotomy services contract. These solicitations span diagnostic imaging infrastructure, medical equipment, and clinical laboratory services rather than the narrow procedural imaging study named in the code. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the issuing bodies' UNSPSC tagging or a disconnect between the taxonomy and actual procurement practice at the hospitals and municipalities posting these opportunities.

The recent activity spans three distinct issuing bodies—San Mateo County (through San Mateo Medical Center), Collier County Florida, and Albuquerque City (through the Albuquerque Police Department)—across three states. San Mateo Medical Center issued an RFP for enterprise PACS implementation with proposals due August 7, 2026, requiring EPIC integration and 99.9% uptime. Collier County posted a Notice of Intent to single-source ultrasound equipment from EchoNous, Inc., with an intent-to-award date of March 26, 2026. Albuquerque issued an RFB for on-call phlebotomy services with responses due February 25, 2026. The code shows little coherent recent activity aligned to its stated scope and appears unreliable as a purchasing category for state and local procurement.
