UNSPSC 85876935: Computerized tomography (ct scan) of left calcaneus 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 calcaneus 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 BQ2K1ZZ

UNSPSC 85876935 Computerized tomography (ct scan) of left calcaneus using low osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that nominally designates a specific diagnostic imaging procedure, yet the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it diverge sharply from that narrow clinical specification. The posted solicitations show state and local health systems procuring enterprise diagnostic imaging infrastructure, ultrasound equipment platforms, and phlebotomy services — none of which involve the specific CT scan procedure named in the code. San Mateo Medical Center is seeking proposals for a comprehensive Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) implementation to support radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging with EPIC Electronic Health Record integration, processing approximately 65,000 radiology studies, 5,000 cardiology studies, and 8,000 mammography interpretations annually. Collier County, Florida, is procuring ultrasound equipment (the KOSMOS platform with TORSO-ONE USB Probe and five-year warranty). The Albuquerque Police Department is seeking on-call phlebotomy technician services for blood draws across Bernalillo County. The issuing bodies are county health systems and municipal public safety departments, not specialized diagnostic imaging centers.

The code shows sparse recent activity with a geographic spread across California, Florida, and New Mexico. The San Mateo County opportunity (RFP, due August 7, 2026) requires PACS vendors to demonstrate successful EPIC integrations within the past five years, public sector or large health system experience, and three to five client references; evaluation weights 30 points to project approach, 25 points to firm qualifications, 20 points to team qualifications, and 25 points to price. A five-year local preference of 5–10% is available under San Mateo County Ordinance Code Chapter 2.89 for local businesses, local nonprofits, and small or micro businesses. The Collier County single-source notice (posted April 1, 2026, due date March 26, 2026) indicates no competitive alternatives were identified for the specified ultrasound platform. The Albuquerque RFB (due February 25, 2026) calls for 24/7 on-call phlebotomy coverage with one-hour response across the county. The code assignment does not reflect the actual scope of work being solicited; bidders pursuing these opportunities should track health system PACS implementations and diagnostic equipment procurements separately from the narrow clinical procedure the code nominally describes.
