UNSPSC 85877136: Computerized tomography (ct scan) of lumbar spine using other contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to computerized tomography (ct scan) of lumbar 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 BR29YZZ

UNSPSC 85877136, Computerized tomography (CT scan) of lumbar spine using other contrast, is a Commodity code that describes a specific diagnostic imaging procedure; however, recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code show minimal relevant activity aligned with the nominal scope. The three recent opportunities posted between January and July 2026 span diagnostic imaging infrastructure and phlebotomy services rather than lumbar spine CT imaging itself. San Mateo Medical Center's RFP for a Diagnostic Imaging Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) includes CT capabilities as part of enterprise-grade radiology infrastructure supporting approximately 65,000 annual imaging studies across multiple modalities, while Collier County's notice of intent addresses ultrasound equipment procurement, and the Albuquerque Police Department's RFB solicits blood draw phlebotomy services — none of which directly align with CT scan service provision or imaging procedure acquisition. The issuing bodies span county health systems (San Mateo County), county procurement divisions (Collier County), and municipal law enforcement (Albuquerque Police Department), indicating broad jurisdiction types, though the mismatch between code scope and actual opportunities suggests this Commodity code may see minimal activity for its stated purpose in state and local contracting.

Geographic activity appears concentrated in California (San Mateo County) and Florida (Collier County) with secondary activity in New Mexico (Albuquerque), though the sparse and misaligned opportunity set limits geographic characterization. The most substantial recent opportunity is San Mateo Medical Center's PACS RFP posted July 9, 2026, with proposals due August 7, 2026, seeking enterprise PACS implementation with EPIC integration, 99.9% uptime, and five-year support; evaluation prioritizes project approach (30 points), firm qualifications (25 points), team qualifications (20 points), and price (25 points), with a local preference of 5–10% available under San Mateo County Ordinance Code Chapter 2.89. The code shows little relevant recent activity for lumbar spine CT imaging procurement itself, and vendors should assess whether opportunities in this taxonomy reflect actual service demand or whether code assignment reflects procurement system miscategorization.
