UNSPSC 85876423: Computerized tomography (ct scan) of left forearm using low osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to computerized tomography (ct scan) of left forearm using low osmolar 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 BP2K1ZZ

UNSPSC 85876423 Computerized tomography (ct scan) of left forearm using low osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific diagnostic imaging procedure; however, recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code shows no meaningful solicitations aligned with that narrow clinical scope. The three recent opportunities posted under this code span diagnostic imaging systems infrastructure (Picture Archiving and Communication System implementation), special education contracted services (audiologists, speech therapists, occupational therapists), and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories including diagnostic imaging and audiology. The code appears to be applied inconsistently across the jurisdictions—none of the three posted solicitations request the specific imaging procedure the code nominally names. Issuing bodies include a county health system (San Mateo Medical Center and County of Santa Clara Health System) and a school district (Birdville Independent School District in Texas), reflecting health care and education sectors rather than a cohesive procurement category.

Geographic activity is concentrated in California (San Mateo County and Santa Clara County) and Texas (Tarrant County), based on the three recent opportunities. The most concrete solicitation aligned to imaging infrastructure is San Mateo Medical Center's RFP for Diagnostic Imaging PACS implementation (RFP 660002526251, due October 21, 2026), which requires enterprise-grade picture archiving and communication system with EPIC integration, support for 65,000 annual radiology studies, and a 9–12 month implementation timeline. Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for Temporary Health Professional Staffing Services (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) establishes a qualified-vendor pool for multiple health professional categories including diagnostic imaging and radiology, though this is a non-exclusive vehicle with no guaranteed work volume. The code shows weak coherence with actual state and local procurement; business development professionals should verify code alignment with specific opportunities before pursuit, as the category appears subject to tagging inconsistency.
