UNSPSC 85876451: Computerized tomography (ct scan) of right humerus using low osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to computerized tomography (ct scan) of right humerus 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 BP2A1ZZ

UNSPSC 85876451 Computerized tomography (CT scan) of right humerus using low osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual scope of state and local purchasing activity indexed under it. Recent opportunities posted under this code cover diagnostic imaging systems infrastructure, special education contracted services, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the code's nominal description of a single imaging procedure on a specific anatomical site. The one opportunity with genuine relevance to diagnostic imaging, San Mateo Medical Center's Diagnostic Imaging PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) RFP due October 21, 2026, concerns enterprise-grade software implementation and data migration supporting 65,000 annual radiology studies, 5,000 cardiology studies, and 8,000 mammography interpretations, not individual CT scans. This suggests either systematic misclassification of opportunities under the code or that the code's intended use in state and local procurement differs materially from its nominal specification.

The issuing bodies represented in recent postings span county health systems (San Mateo County, Santa Clara County) and school districts (Birdville Independent School District), with no other recent activity supporting reliable characterization of geographic concentration or repeat-buyer patterns. The code shows sparse recent activity overall, and the opportunities that do appear—covering PACS implementation timelines of 9–12 months, special education contracted services across 30 school campuses in northeast Texas with terms through November 2027, and a five-year qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing—do not form a coherent procurement family. Business development professionals should verify the code's current use in their target jurisdictions before allocating pursuit resources, as the code's application appears inconsistent with its technical specification.
