UNSPSC 85875001: Ultrasonography of thyroid gland

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to ultrasonography of thyroid gland. 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 BG44ZZZ

UNSPSC 85875001 Ultrasonography of thyroid gland is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned to the code's nominal scope. The three recent opportunities posted under this code represent diagnostic imaging infrastructure, school-based special education services, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve thyroid ultrasound procurement or thyroid ultrasound services as discrete line items. The mismatch suggests either broad misclassification by issuing bodies or use of the code as a catch-all for imaging and diagnostic services more broadly. State and local governments do purchase diagnostic imaging services and equipment, but the tagged opportunities reflect system-level PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) implementation, educator and clinician contracting, and health professional staffing pools rather than specific ultrasound procedures or equipment.

Recent activity spans California and Texas. San Mateo Medical Center (California) posted an RFP for enterprise-grade Diagnostic Imaging PACS implementation (due October 21, 2026) supporting radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging with migration from legacy systems and 99.9% uptime requirements. Santa Clara County Health System (California) issued a non-exclusive qualified vendor pool RFQ for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories including Diagnostic Imaging/Radiology (due October 7, 2026). Birdville Independent School District (Texas) solicited special education contracted services including various therapists and evaluators through October 21, 2026. If your firm pursues this code, verify the actual commodity or service line at RFP release before investing in proposal preparation—the code label and recent opportunity descriptions show limited alignment to thyroid ultrasound specifically.
