UNSPSC 85876317: Magnetic resonance imaging (mri) of right forearm

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to magnetic resonance imaging (mri) of right forearm. 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 BP3JZZZ

UNSPSC 85876317 Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of right forearm is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific clinical diagnostic imaging service, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show little alignment with that scope. The three most recent solicitations address Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) infrastructure at a county hospital system, special education contracted services across a school district, and temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories at a county health system. Only one opportunity—the Santa Clara Health System request for temporary diagnostic imaging and radiology staffing—touches imaging services at all, and that solicitation covers staffing placement rather than imaging procedures themselves. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being bought suggests either data entry error in the tagging or a fundamental misalignment between the UNSPSC classification and the state and local procurement practice reflected in these notices.

No recent state and local opportunities directly soliciting MRI procedures, imaging equipment, or imaging interpretation services appear in the source. The one opportunity with diagnostic imaging relevance—Santa Clara Health System's qualification-based vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing services (RFSQHHSFY270052, responses due October 7, 2026)—addresses staffing augmentation for radiology and diagnostic imaging departments rather than the imaging service itself. The geographic spread of these three mismatched opportunities spans California (San Mateo County, Santa Clara County) and Texas (Tarrant County), but the diversity of issuing bodies and scope areas (county hospital systems and school districts) reinforces that the code shows little relevant recent activity in actual MRI or diagnostic imaging procurement.
