UNSPSC 85876625: Computerized tomography (ct scan) of head using low osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to computerized tomography (ct scan) of head 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 BW281ZZ

UNSPSC 85876625 Computerized tomography (CT scan) of head using low osmolar contrast is a Commodity code whose title does not align closely with recent state and local procurement activity posted under it. The three recent opportunities span diagnostic imaging infrastructure (a PACS system supporting radiology, cardiology, and mammography), ultrasound equipment procurement, and phlebotomy blood draw services—none of which are CT imaging with contrast agents. State and local health systems and police departments are the primary issuing bodies, but the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either cataloging inconsistency or use of the code as a catch-all for diagnostic and laboratory services. The opportunities show typical healthcare procurement patterns: multi-year service agreements with performance metrics, vendor qualifications tied to prior health system experience and EHR integration, and compliance mandates including HIPAA and living wage ordinances.

Recent activity appears in California and Florida. San Mateo County's Diagnostic Imaging PACS solicitation (RFP, due August 7, 2026) seeks enterprise-grade picture archiving and communication system implementation with EPIC integration, supporting 65,000 annual radiology studies and requiring 99.9% uptime and two-second image load times; the County offers a 5–10% local preference under Ordinance Chapter 2.89. Collier County, Florida posted a Notice of Intent to single source ultrasound equipment from EchoNous, Inc. (due March 26, 2026, now closed). The Albuquerque Police Department issued an RFB for on-call phlebotomy blood draw services (due February 25, 2026, now closed), seeking 24/7 coverage across Bernalillo County with approximately 300 annual calls. The code shows no geographic concentration, and the present portfolio does not reflect CT imaging procurement—bid under this code only if your firm offers broader diagnostic imaging or laboratory services to health systems.
