UNSPSC 85877078: Plain radiography of left femur, densitometry

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to plain radiography of left femur, densitometryplain radiography of left femur, densitometry. 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 BQ04ZZ1

UNSPSC 85877078 Plain radiography of left femur, densitometry is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The three most recent opportunities tagged under this code involve diagnostic imaging systems procurement (San Mateo Medical Center's PACS implementation), special education contracted services (Birdville Independent School District), and temporary health professional staffing (Santa Clara County Health System). None of these solicitations concern plain radiography of a specific skeletal site or densitometry services as the code nominally describes. The PACS opportunity references radiology and imaging infrastructure broadly, the school district solicitation addresses speech therapy, occupational therapy, and psychology services unrelated to radiography, and the Santa Clara Health System RFQ addresses temporary staffing across clinical categories including diagnostic imaging but not plain femur radiography specifically. The code appears to see minimal or misaligned activity in current state and local procurement.

The geographic spread of the three opportunities spans California (San Mateo County and Santa Clara County) and Texas (Birdville Independent School District in Tarrant County), but the disconnect between the code's nominal scope and actual solicitations limits utility for vendors pursuing plain radiography or densitometry work. San Mateo Medical Center's PACS RFP (posted October 7, 2026, due October 21, 2026) is the only opportunity with direct radiography relevance, though it targets system infrastructure rather than imaging services. Absent clear alignment between the code and recent state and local spending patterns, business development professionals should verify whether opportunities are truly tagged correctly before investing pursuit effort.
