UNSPSC 85876938: Computerized tomography (ct scan) of right calcaneus using other contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to computerized tomography (ct scan) of right calcaneus using other 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 BQ2JYZZ

UNSPSC 85876938 Computerized tomography (CT scan) of right calcaneus using other contrast is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific medical imaging service; however, recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show little direct alignment with the narrow service scope and instead reflect broader diagnostic imaging infrastructure and health professional staffing procurement. The recent opportunities posted under this code include a San Mateo Medical Center RFP for enterprise-grade Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) implementation with EPIC integration to support radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging workflows; a Birdville Independent School District competitive sealed proposal for special education contracted services across multiple clinical specialties including speech language pathology, occupational therapy, and physical therapy; and a Santa Clara County Health System qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories including diagnostic imaging and radiology. The issuing bodies are a county-operated public hospital system, an independent school district in Texas, and a county health system. The code appears to lack relevance to its stated commodity description, and opportunities flagged under it actually address infrastructure acquisition and contingent clinical staffing rather than the specific diagnostic procedure named.

Geographic activity centers on California (San Mateo County and Santa Clara County) and Texas (Birdville ISD in Tarrant County). The San Mateo Medical Center PACS procurement, posted October 7, 2026 with a response deadline of October 21, 2026, specifies enterprise implementation supporting approximately 65,000 radiology studies, 5,000 cardiology studies, and 8,000 mammography interpretations annually, with 9–12 month implementation timelines and five-year agreement terms; evaluation weights 30 points to project approach, 25 to firm qualifications, 20 to team qualifications, and 25 to price, and San Mateo County offers a 5–10% local preference under County Ordinance Code Chapter 2.89. The Santa Clara County Health System RFQ, posted July 7, 2026 with a response deadline of October 7, 2026, establishes a non-exclusive, five-year qualified vendor pool with no guaranteed work volume; proposers may self-select single or multiple health professional categories without evaluation penalty. The mismatch between the code's specificity and the actual procurement activity suggests the code is either a tagging artifact or the opportunities have been miscoded at the commodity level.
