UNSPSC 85872513: Plain radiography of cervico-cerebral arch using low osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to plain radiography of cervico-cerebral arch using low 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 B30Q1ZZ

UNSPSC 85872513 Plain radiography of cervico-cerebral arch using low osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that shows minimal recent alignment with its nominal scope in state and local procurement. The three most recent opportunities posted under this code do not reflect diagnostic imaging services matching the code's specific clinical procedure. Instead, the opportunities span diagnostic imaging system infrastructure (a Picture Archiving and Communication System procurement), special education contracted services unrelated to medical imaging, and a health professional staffing vehicle that includes diagnostic imaging roles as one category among many. The code appears to have been applied inconsistently or as a catch-all classification for health system procurements without direct reference to the plain radiography procedure the code nominally describes.

San Mateo Medical Center (a county-operated public hospital in California) posted the most relevant recent opportunity—a competitive RFP for Diagnostic Imaging PACS implementation with an October 21, 2026 proposal deadline—which involves picture archiving infrastructure supporting radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging across approximately 65,000 annual studies. The County of Santa Clara Health System established a non-exclusive, multiple-award qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing that includes Diagnostic Imaging/Radiology as one of thirteen eligible categories, with an October 7, 2026 response date. The third opportunity, from Birdville Independent School District in Texas (due October 21, 2026), involved special education contracted services and bears no connection to the code's scope. Geographic activity in the recent block centers on California (San Mateo and Santa Clara counties) with one unrelated Texas posting. Given the mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the actual procurements tagged under it, pursuit of this code based on recent state and local activity is not recommended without clarification from individual issuing bodies on their actual clinical or technical needs.
