UNSPSC 85873916: Computerized tomography (ct scan) of left pulmonary vein using low osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to computerized tomography (ct scan) of left pulmonary vein 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 B52R1ZZ

UNSPSC 85873916 Computerized tomography (ct scan) of left pulmonary vein using low osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity posted under it. The code nominally describes a specific diagnostic imaging procedure and contrast medium, but the three recent opportunities show no direct purchasing of CT scans or contrast agents. Instead, issuing bodies are soliciting for diagnostic imaging infrastructure (PACS systems), special education contracted services (audiologists, speech therapists, occupational therapists), and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories including diagnostic imaging, radiology, cardiology, and other specialties. The opportunities appear to reflect misclassification or broad tagging rather than genuine demand for the narrow service the code describes.

The issuing bodies include a county health system (San Mateo Medical Center), a regional health system (Santa Clara Health System), and an independent school district (Birdville ISD in Tarrant County, Texas), spanning California and Texas. Recent activity includes San Mateo Medical Center's RFP for Diagnostic Imaging PACS implementation (due October 21, 2026), Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across 13 clinical categories including diagnostic imaging and radiology (due October 7, 2026), and Birdville ISD's sealed proposal request for special education contracted services covering 23 line items (due October 21, 2026). The code shows little relevant recent activity for the specific service it nominally covers — CT scanning and contrast administration — and any pursuit strategy should clarify whether the tagging reflects actual demand for imaging services or a classification error.
