UNSPSC 85876641: Computerized tomography (ct scan) of skull using low osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to computerized tomography (ct scan) of skull 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 BN201ZZ

UNSPSC 85876641 Computerized tomography (CT scan) of skull using low osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that appears in state and local procurement activity but does not align with the scope of recent solicitations actually posted under it. The three most recent opportunities tagged to this code involve diagnostic imaging systems infrastructure (a Picture Archiving and Communication System at San Mateo Medical Center), ultrasound equipment procurement (EchoNous KOSMOS platform at Collier County, Florida), and phlebotomy services (blood draw services for the Albuquerque Police Department) — none of which involve CT imaging of the skull or contrast-agent services. The code's nominal scope describes a specific clinical imaging procedure performed within a radiology or imaging department, yet the actual purchasing activity reflects capital equipment acquisition, system implementation, and ancillary clinical services that sit outside the code's narrow specification. State and local issuing bodies are posting opportunities under this code that belong to broader diagnostic imaging or clinical services categories rather than to the specific procedural imaging code itself.

The three recent opportunities span California (San Mateo County), Florida (Collier County), and New Mexico (Albuquerque), suggesting geographic scatter rather than concentrated activity in any single region. San Mateo County's RFP for a Diagnostic Imaging PACS system posted July 9, 2026, with response due August 7, 2026, requires enterprise-grade Picture Archiving and Communication System implementation supporting radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging with EPIC integration — a systems integration contract, not a clinical imaging service. Collier County's notice of intent to single source EchoNous, Inc., posted April 1, 2026, for ultrasound equipment and a five-year warranty represents equipment procurement unrelated to CT imaging. The Albuquerque Police Department's RFB for blood draw services, posted January 26, 2026, with bids due February 25, 2026, is a clinical phlebotomy service contract and has no connection to the code's nominal scope. The mismatch between the code and the actual work being solicited suggests that this code sees little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement.
