UNSPSC 85874835: Magnetic resonance imaging (mri) of nasopharynx/oropharynx

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to magnetic resonance imaging (mri) of nasopharynx/oropharynx. 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 B93FZZZ

UNSPSC 85874835 Magnetic resonance imaging (mri) of nasopharynx/oropharynx is a Commodity code that in practice captures diagnostic imaging infrastructure and staffing services rather than discrete MRI procedures. State and local governments soliciting under this code are primarily county health systems and public hospital networks procuring enterprise-grade Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) implementations, temporary diagnostic imaging technician staffing, and related ancillary clinical services to support radiology, cardiology, and specialty imaging operations across multi-campus or multi-facility systems. Issuing bodies include county health authorities operating acute-care hospitals and outpatient clinics, independent school districts contracting specialized clinical evaluations, and regional health systems establishing qualified vendor pools for on-call diagnostic and therapeutic staffing.

Recent solicitations show activity concentrated in California and Texas. San Mateo Medical Center (SMMC), a county public hospital system, posted an RFP in October 2026 (due October 21, 2026) for Diagnostic Imaging PACS with enterprise-grade requirements including 99.9% uptime, EPIC integration, and migration of 65,000 annual radiology studies from a legacy system; the County of Santa Clara Health System posted an RFQ in July 2026 (due October 7, 2026) to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary Diagnostic Imaging/Radiology staffing on a non-exclusive, multiple-award basis with no guaranteed volume; Birdville Independent School District (BISD) in northeast Texas posted a competitive sealed proposal solicitation in September 2026 (due October 21, 2026) for special education contracted services including audiologist, diagnostician, and speech language therapist services across 30 campuses. The code appears to reflect mislabeling within state and local procurement systems—the recent solicitations span PACS implementation, temporary clinical staffing, and school-based special education services rather than MRI procedures specific to nasopharynx/oropharynx anatomy. Activity under this code shows limited relevance to the nominal commodity description.
