UNSPSC 85876637: Computerized tomography (ct scan) of bilateral temporomandibular joints using low osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to computerized tomography (ct scan) of bilateral temporomandibular joints 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 BN291ZZ

UNSPSC 85876637 Computerized tomography (ct scan) of bilateral temporomandibular joints using low osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that maps to diagnostic imaging and radiology services procurement at the state and local level. The recent opportunities tagged under this code show a significant mismatch: the actual buying activity centers on enterprise Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) implementations, temporary health professional staffing for diagnostic imaging and ancillary clinical roles, and special education contracted services—none of which align with the code's nominal scope of a specific clinical imaging procedure using contrast media. San Mateo Medical Center issued an RFP for a diagnostic imaging PACS system to replace legacy infrastructure serving 65,000 annual radiology studies plus cardiology and mammography volumes, requiring enterprise-grade implementation with EPIC integration and 99.9% uptime; the County of Santa Clara Health System established a multi-category qualified vendor pool for temporary diagnostic imaging and radiology staffing as part of broader ancillary clinical staffing; and Birdville Independent School District (Texas) solicited special education contracted services unrelated to imaging. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned to its stated commodity scope—the PACS and staffing solicitations concern the operational and IT infrastructure supporting diagnostic imaging delivery rather than the provision of imaging studies themselves.

Geographic activity appears concentrated in California (San Mateo County and Santa Clara County) with one outlier in Texas (school-district special education). The San Mateo Medical Center RFP (due October 21, 2026) and Santa Clara Health System qualified vendor pool solicitation (due October 7, 2026) represent the only opportunities with direct bearing on diagnostic imaging operations. Neither opportunity directly procures the imaging procedure named in the code; the mismatch suggests either miscoding in the procurement systems or that state and local agencies are not sourcing imaging studies themselves but rather the systems and personnel to deliver them. Business development professionals should treat this code as showing minimal procurement signal for the clinical service it nominally describes.
