UNSPSC 85874928: Plain radiography of bilateral lacrimal ducts using low osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to plain radiography of bilateral lacrimal ducts 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 B8021ZZ

UNSPSC 85874928 Plain radiography of bilateral lacrimal ducts using low osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a specific radiological procedure involving contrast-media imaging of tear ducts—does not align with the recent opportunities posted under it. The three most recent state and local solicitations tagged to this code span diagnostic imaging systems procurement (San Mateo Medical Center's PACS implementation), special education contracted services (Birdville Independent School District), and temporary health professional staffing (County of Santa Clara Health System). None of these opportunities involve the specific lacrimal duct imaging procedure the code describes; the mismatch suggests either miscoding in the source data or an artifact of how issuing bodies classify health care and clinical staffing contracts.

Activity across the posted opportunities spans California and Texas, with San Mateo County, Santa Clara County, and Tarrant County representing the geographic spread. The issuing bodies are a county hospital system, a school district, and a county health system. Given the misalignment between the code's nominal scope and the actual work posted under it, this code does not present a reliable basis for business development targeting in state and local procurement. Vendors offering lacrimal imaging services or contrast media should verify the correct UNSPSC coding before pursuing opportunities under this classification.
