UNSPSC 85877144: Computerized tomography (ct scan) of cervical spine using other contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to computerized tomography (ct scan) of cervical 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 BR20YZZ

UNSPSC 85877144 Computerized tomography (CT scan) of cervical spine using other contrast, a Commodity code, nominally covers diagnostic imaging procedures; however, the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code reflect a misalignment between the code's technical specificity and the actual work being solicited. Rather than CT scans of the cervical spine, the opportunities show procurement of enterprise imaging infrastructure, ultrasound equipment, and ancillary medical services. San Mateo Medical Center is seeking proposals for a Diagnostic Imaging PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) to consolidate radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging with EPIC EHR integration, while Collier County, Florida, is single-sourcing ultrasound equipment and related services from a specialized vendor. A third opportunity from the Albuquerque Police Department requests on-call phlebotomy technician services for blood draw operations. The issuing bodies span county health systems, county procurement divisions, and municipal police departments—a mix reflecting broader public-sector diagnostic and clinical support services rather than a focused specialty imaging modality.

Geographic activity centers on California and Florida, with a secondary solicitation in New Mexico. The San Mateo Medical Center RFP, due August 7, 2026, is the most substantive opportunity, requiring PACS implementation supporting 65,000 radiology studies, 5,000 cardiology studies, and 8,000 mammography interpretations annually, with 99.9% uptime, migration of legacy ScImage data, and 9–12 month deployment. The Collier County single-source notice for EchoNous ultrasound equipment closed March 26, 2026. The Albuquerque RFB for phlebotomy services closed February 25, 2026. This code shows sparse recent activity, and the opportunities posted do not align cleanly with the nominal scope of cervical spine CT imaging—suggesting either tagging inconsistency or a need to evaluate whether the code remains decision-relevant for firms focused on diagnostic procedure services versus healthcare information systems or clinical support staffing.
