UNSPSC 85875274: Plain radiography of left ribs

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to plain radiography of left ribs. 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 BP0YZZZ

UNSPSC 85875274 Plain radiography of left ribs (Commodity) shows minimal relevance to state and local procurement activity. The single recent opportunity explicitly tagged to this code—a San Mateo Medical Center RFP for a Diagnostic Imaging PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) posted October 7, 2026, with proposals due October 21, 2026—solicits enterprise-grade imaging platform implementation and data migration, not plain radiography services themselves. The other two recent opportunities in the source (Birdville Independent School District special education contracted services and Santa Clara County Health System temporary health professional staffing) are unrelated to radiography or diagnostic imaging and appear to have been mislabeled with this code. State and local health systems do procure diagnostic imaging services and equipment, but this specific commodity code for plain left-rib radiography does not capture the actual scope of imaging work being solicited in the current market.

The San Mateo Medical Center PACS opportunity is the only activity traceable to imaging infrastructure under this code. That solicitation involves migration from legacy ScImage PACS software (in place since 2009), support for 65,000 annual radiology studies plus cardiology and mammography imaging, EPIC EHR integration, 99.9% uptime requirements, and a five-year term. Evaluation favors project approach (30 points), firm and team qualifications (45 points combined), and price (25 points). Vendors must demonstrate prior PACS implementations with EPIC in public-sector or large health-system settings. The County of San Mateo offers a local preference of 5–10% under Chapter 2.89 ordinance and enforces a $17.00 minimum living wage with annual CPI-U adjustments capped at 3.5%. This opportunity reflects capital procurement and systems integration rather than radiography service delivery, and the mismatch between the commodity code and the actual work being bought signals that this code is not a reliable indicator of state and local diagnostic imaging procurement activity.
