UNSPSC 85876941: Computerized tomography (ct scan) of left ankle

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to computerized tomography (ct scan) of left ankle. 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 BQ2HZZZ

UNSPSC 85876941 Computerized tomography (ct scan) of left ankle is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this classification do not reflect diagnostic imaging services for individual patients. Instead, the code shows activity centered on health system infrastructure and staffing procurement. San Mateo Medical Center solicited an RFP for a Diagnostic Imaging Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) — enterprise-grade imaging software and implementation supporting radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging across approximately 65,000 annual radiology studies, 5,000 cardiology studies, and 8,000 mammography interpretations, with responses due October 21, 2026. Santa Clara County Health System posted an RFQ for temporary health professional staffing services including diagnostic imaging and radiology positions as part of a multi-category qualified vendor pool, due October 7, 2026. Birdville Independent School District in Texas also appears in the code's recent opportunities, but its RFP for special education contracted services (responses due October 21, 2026) falls outside the code's nominal scope. The issuing bodies include county health systems, large public medical centers, and school districts, indicating a mixed-use classification that conflates clinical service delivery, health system capital technology, and workforce augmentation.

Activity under this code concentrates in California, with San Mateo County and Santa Clara County each posting opportunities in the third quarter of 2026, and extends into Texas through the school district solicitation. The mismatch between the code's stated definition (individual imaging procedures for left ankle) and the actual state and local procurement activity suggests the code is either misapplied in the opportunities database or used as a catch-all for health services infrastructure and staffing that should route to separate UNSPSC classifications. Business development professionals should verify code assignment with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities tagged here, as the scope of work varies substantially and does not consistently align with the diagnostic imaging commodity described in the code's name.
