UNSPSC 85873911: Computerized tomography (ct scan) of bilateral pulmonary veins using high osmolar contrast, unenhanced and enhanced

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to computerized tomography (ct scan) of bilateral pulmonary veins using high osmolar contrast, unenhanced and enhancedcomputerized tomography (ct scan) of bilateral pulmonary veins using high osmolar contrast, unenhanced and enhanced. 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 B52S00Z

UNSPSC 85873911 Computerized tomography of bilateral pulmonary veins using high osmolar contrast, unenhanced and enhanced is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The three most recent opportunities posted under this code—a diagnostic imaging PACS system implementation at San Mateo Medical Center, special education contracted services at Birdville Independent School District, and temporary health professional staffing at the County of Santa Clara Health System—represent procurement of information technology infrastructure, educational support services, and clinical staffing rather than imaging procedures or contrast agents. The code's nominal scope describes a specific radiologic examination protocol; none of the posted solicitations solicit imaging procedures, imaging equipment, or contrast media directly.

The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or a data artifact in the source. San Mateo County and Santa Clara County (California) and Birdville Independent School District (Texas) are the three issuing bodies represented, spanning two states and multiple public sector sectors. No recent opportunities in the source reflect actual purchasing under the code's technical definition, making pursuit under this code impractical. State and local procurement professionals should verify whether this code is actively used for imaging services procurement or whether opportunities related to imaging systems, equipment, or consumables appear under different UNSPSC classifications in their target jurisdictions.
