UNSPSC 85877122: Magnetic resonance imaging (mri) of thoracic spine using other contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to magnetic resonance imaging (mri) of thoracic spine using other 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 BR37YZZ

UNSPSC 85877122 Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of thoracic spine using other contrast is a Commodity code that maps poorly to current state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not solicit MRI services or diagnostic imaging procedures themselves. Instead, the opportunities target Diagnostic Imaging Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS) software and implementation, temporary health professional staffing (including diagnostic imaging technicians and radiologists as one category among many ancillary clinical roles), and special education contracted services — none of which align with the code's nominal scope of MRI imaging with contrast. The mismatch suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or that this Commodity code does not reflect how state and local procurement offices actually classify imaging services or radiology workflow.

The single representative opportunity with nominal relevance is San Mateo Medical Center's RFP for Diagnostic Imaging PACS (solicitation 660002526251, due October 21, 2026), which supports enterprise-grade picture archiving and communication systems but does not procure MRI procedures or contrast imaging services directly. Santa Clara County Health System's solicitation for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) lists diagnostic imaging and radiology services as one qualified category among thirteen ancillary clinical roles, again not targeting MRI imaging with contrast as a distinct procurement line. The code shows no recent activity in California and Texas supporting direct procurement of MRI diagnostic services or contrast agents. State and local governments appear to classify radiology and imaging services through different UNSPSC families or to procure imaging through health system operational budgets rather than discrete solicitations tagged to this Commodity code.
