UNSPSC 85876002: Magnetic resonance imaging (mri) of thorax subcutaneous tissue

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to magnetic resonance imaging (mri) of thorax subcutaneous tissue. 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 BH3GZZZ

UNSPSC 85876002 Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of thorax subcutaneous tissue is a Commodity code that in practice does not capture the diagnostic imaging technology and health system infrastructure that state and local health agencies are actively procuring. The recent opportunities tagged under this code reveal a substantial mismatch: San Mateo Medical Center is soliciting a comprehensive Diagnostic Imaging Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) implementation supporting radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging with EPIC integration, while Santa Clara Health System is building a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple clinical categories including diagnostic imaging and radiology. Neither opportunity is actually buying MRI equipment or imaging services of thorax subcutaneous tissue in isolation. The issuing bodies are hospital systems and county health agencies—San Mateo Medical Center (a public hospital and clinic system), Santa Clara Health System, and Birdville Independent School District (which posted a special education contracted services RFP unrelated to the code). The code shows minimal relevant recent activity for what it nominally describes.

The geographic spread of the three recent opportunities spans California (San Mateo County, Santa Clara County) and Texas (Tarrant County), but only the San Mateo and Santa Clara postings are substantively aligned with diagnostic imaging infrastructure. San Mateo Medical Center posted an RFP for Diagnostic Imaging PACS due October 21, 2026, requiring enterprise-grade implementation supporting approximately 65,000 annual radiology studies with 99.9% uptime and HIPAA compliance, including data migration from a legacy ScImage system and a five-year agreement term. Santa Clara Health System posted a non-exclusive multiple-award RFQ due October 7, 2026 for temporary health professional staffing, including diagnostic imaging and radiology positions, with qualifications negotiated case-by-case and no guaranteed work volume. The code as written does not align with the actual procurement signals in state and local health system activity.
