UNSPSC 85875403: Computerized tomography (ct scan) of colon

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to computerized tomography (ct scan) of colon. 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 BD24ZZZ

UNSPSC 85875403 Computerized tomography (CT scan) of colon is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific diagnostic imaging procedure; however, recent state and local solicitations under this code do not reflect procurement of CT colonoscopy services themselves but rather the infrastructure, equipment, and support services that enable imaging delivery across multiple modalities. San Mateo Medical Center's Request for Proposals for a Diagnostic Imaging Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) posted July 9, 2026, with response due August 7, 2026, exemplifies the actual scope: enterprise-grade imaging software and implementation supporting radiology, cardiology, dental imaging, and mammography interpretations, with data migration from legacy systems, advanced visualization capabilities including 3D reconstruction, and integration with Electronic Health Record systems. A secondary opportunity from Collier County, Florida, posted April 1, 2026, reflects procurement of specialized ultrasound equipment (KOSMOS platform with TORSO-ONE USB Probe) and associated warranties and accessories. These opportunities show a significant mismatch between the code's nominal name and what state and local healthcare systems are actually buying—primarily PACS software, imaging equipment platforms, and implementation services rather than standalone CT colonoscopy procedures.

Recent activity centers on county-level health systems and municipal hospitals in California and Florida. San Mateo County Medical Center, a public acute-care hospital and clinic system serving the entire county without regard to ability to pay, leads the visible pipeline with its large-scale PACS replacement initiative accommodating 65,000 annual radiology studies and requiring 9–12 month implementation with 99.9% uptime and five-year terms. Collier County's single-source procurement of ultrasound equipment, posted with a March 26, 2026 response deadline, demonstrates parallel activity among Florida county health systems. A third opportunity from Albuquerque Police Department (January 26, 2026 posting, February 25, 2026 response deadline) reflects municipal procurement of phlebotomy services related to forensic blood draw, a peripheral but documented use of this taxonomy. Geographic spread currently appears limited to California and Florida with New Mexico activity on the margins. Firms pursuing this code should focus on enterprise PACS implementation, imaging equipment supply and integration, and related data migration and training services for county health systems and municipal hospital networks rather than clinical procedure provision.
