UNSPSC 85876965: Computerized tomography (ct scan) of left knee 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 knee 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 BQ281ZZ

UNSPSC 85876965 Computerized tomography (CT scan) of left knee using low osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local procurement opportunities currently posted under it. The three most recent solicitations—a diagnostic imaging PACS system from San Mateo Medical Center, special education contracted services from Birdville Independent School District, and temporary health professional staffing from Santa Clara County Health System—involve health information technology infrastructure, educational support services, and clinical staffing placement respectively, none of which represent imaging services or consumable contrast media. The code's nominal scope (a specific diagnostic imaging procedure with pharmaceutical contrast agent) does not match the work actually being solicited in state and local markets under this classification.

No representative recent opportunities exist for the procurement or delivery of CT imaging services or contrast media at the state or local level under this code. The mismatch suggests either inconsistent code assignment in state procurement systems or minimal recent activity in this specific imaging commodity among state and local buyers. Practitioners evaluating this code should verify the correct UNSPSC classification for their imaging service or contrast product lines, as the current tagging does not reflect material procurement activity.
