UNSPSC 85877080: Plain radiography of right femur, densitometry

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to plain radiography of right femur, densitometryplain radiography of right 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 BQ03ZZ1

UNSPSC 85877080 Plain radiography of right femur, densitometry is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent solicitation record shows the code is being applied to diagnostic imaging system contracts rather than to radiographic services or densitometry examinations themselves. San Mateo Medical Center's RFP for a Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) with proposals due October 21, 2026 represents enterprise-grade imaging infrastructure procurement—software, implementation, migration, and training for radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging workflows—rather than the clinical imaging procedures the code nominally names. The mismatch between the code's scope and actual buying activity suggests that state and local procurement offices are using this commodity code as a catch-all category for diagnostic imaging system contracts that do not fit cleanly into health information technology or imaging equipment classifications. County health systems and public hospital operators appear to be the primary issuing bodies under this code.

Geographic activity is concentrated in California, with San Mateo County representing the primary recent opportunity. The County of Santa Clara Health System also posted a qualification-based solicitation for temporary health professional staffing in diagnostic imaging and radiology services in July 2026 with proposals due October 7, 2026, establishing a qualified vendor pool for ancillary clinical staffing without guaranteed work volume. Beyond the California opportunities, the source shows no other state or local diagnostic imaging procurement activity under this code. The mismatch between code definition and procurement practice, combined with sparse recent activity, suggests limited pursuit opportunity unless business development focus targets public hospital system technology infrastructure contracts in California specifically.
