UNSPSC 85876985: Computerized tomography (ct scan) of right hip using low osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to computerized tomography (ct scan) of right hip 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 BQ201ZZ

UNSPSC 85876985 Computerized tomography (ct scan) of right hip using low osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that captures diagnostic medical imaging equipment, systems, and related services that state and local health care providers procure to support radiology, cardiology, dental, and other clinical imaging operations. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not consistently align with the nominal scope — the San Mateo Medical Center RFP solicits a full enterprise Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) for image storage, retrieval, and visualization across multiple imaging modalities rather than a specific CT scan procedure; Collier County's notice targets portable ultrasound equipment from a single vendor; and the Albuquerque Police Department's RFB seeks phlebotomy technician services unrelated to imaging. Issuing bodies in the recent record span county health systems (San Mateo Medical Center), county procurement offices (Collier County), and city law-enforcement departments (Albuquerque Police Department), reflecting the broad jurisdictional distribution of health care and public-safety operations that may tag imaging or laboratory services to this code regardless of precise alignment.

The geographic spread evident in recent postings covers California (San Mateo County), Florida (Collier County), and New Mexico (Albuquerque), suggesting activity across multiple regions rather than concentration in any single state. The most substantial opportunity is San Mateo Medical Center's PACS implementation (RFP 660002526251, due August 7, 2026), which requires enterprise-grade software, data migration from legacy systems, EPIC EHR integration, and a nine- to twelve-month implementation timeline supporting approximately 65,000 radiology studies, 5,000 cardiology studies, and 8,000 mammography interpretations annually, with evaluation weighted 30 points for project approach, 25 points for firm qualifications, 20 points for team qualifications, and 25 points for price; the procurement includes a local preference of 5–10% available under San Mateo County Ordinance Code Chapter 2.89. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope (a specific CT imaging procedure) and the actual work being solicited (systems procurement and phlebotomy services) suggests this code sees limited relevant state and local activity or is being applied inconsistently across issuing bodies.
