UNSPSC 85876336: Magnetic resonance imaging (mri) of right shoulder using other contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to magnetic resonance imaging (mri) of right shoulder using other contrast. 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 BP38YZZ

UNSPSC 85876336 Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of right shoulder using other contrast is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitations, does not align with the work actually being procured under it. The three most recent opportunities posted under this code span diagnostic imaging infrastructure (picture archiving and communication systems for hospital radiology operations), special education contracted services (audiologists, diagnosticians, and therapists for school districts), and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories including diagnostic imaging and radiology. None of these solicitations involve MRI services or imaging procedures; instead, they address PACS technology implementation, educational support staffing, and clinical staffing placement services. The code appears to be a systematic mislabeling in the state and local procurement database, with no concrete evidence of actual MRI imaging services being purchased by state or local health systems under this category code.

The three opportunities surface across California (San Mateo County Medical Center's Diagnostic Imaging PACS solicitation posted October 7, 2026, due October 21; Santa Clara County Health System's temporary health professional staffing RFQ posted July 7, 2026, due October 7) and Texas (Birdville Independent School District's special education contracted services RFP posted September 18, 2026, due October 21). The mismatch between the Commodity code name and the actual procurement scope signals that this code carries minimal decision value for business development professionals targeting genuine diagnostic imaging or MRI services in state and local health systems. Firms pursuing health system work should monitor UNSPSC codes associated with medical equipment procurement, diagnostic services, and clinical staffing separately rather than relying on this code as a signal for MRI-related opportunities.
