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 nominally describes a specific diagnostic imaging procedure, yet recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows little alignment with that narrow scope. The three most recent opportunities tagged to this code instead cover enterprise medical imaging systems (PACS implementation), portable ultrasound equipment with warranty and software licensing, and on-call phlebotomy services for law enforcement — a collection that spans infrastructure, devices, and clinical labor services rather than a single CT imaging service line. This mismatch suggests either misclassification in the source system or use of the code as a catch-all for diagnostic and clinical services more broadly.

The issuing bodies include a county hospital system (San Mateo Medical Center in California), a county procurement services division handling medical equipment (Collier County, Florida), and a municipal police department managing forensic services (Albuquerque Police Department, New Mexico). Geographic activity appears scattered across California, Florida, and New Mexico with no concentration evident. Representative recent opportunities include San Mateo County's RFP for Diagnostic Imaging PACS due August 7, 2026, seeking enterprise radiology and cardiology imaging system implementation with EPIC integration; Collier County's notice of intent to single-source EchoNous ultrasound equipment (posted April 1, 2026); and Albuquerque's RFB for on-call phlebotomy technician services due February 25, 2026. The code shows limited, fragmented recent activity with unclear governance — pursue only if your firm's service or product genuinely aligns with one of these specific opportunities rather than the code's stated CT imaging scope.
