UNSPSC 85875006: Magnetic resonance imaging (mri) of parathyroid glands

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to magnetic resonance imaging (mri) of parathyroid glands. 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 BG33ZZZ

UNSPSC 85875006 Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of parathyroid glands is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under it reflect no activity aligned with MRI services or parathyroid imaging. Instead, the three most recent solicitations posted under this code cover diagnostic imaging Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) infrastructure, special education contracted services including speech therapy and occupational therapy, and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories including diagnostic imaging and audiology. The code shows little relevant recent activity for its stated scope; the opportunities tagged to it span unrelated service families—health information technology, school district support services, and clinical staffing placement—rather than specific imaging procedures or diagnostic protocols.

The issuing bodies include San Mateo Medical Center (a public county hospital system in California), Birdville Independent School District (northeast Tarrant County, Texas), and Santa Clara County Health System (California). The most concrete opportunity with imaging relevance is San Mateo Medical Center's PACS implementation RFP (due October 21, 2026), which supports radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging across approximately 65,000 annual radiology studies, but focuses on enterprise software architecture and data migration rather than MRI services. Santa Clara County Health System's temporary staffing qualification vehicle (proposals due October 7, 2026) includes diagnostic imaging and radiology as one of thirteen eligible service categories, but operates as a non-exclusive, multiple-award qualified-vendor pool with no guaranteed work volume. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the solicitations posted under it suggests either classification error at the source jurisdiction level or use of a catch-all code for diverse health services. Firms pursuing state and local imaging or radiology contracts should verify the UNSPSC code classification in any RFP they encounter rather than relying on this code as a reliable marker for MRI or parathyroid-specific imaging work.
