UNSPSC 85877255: Plain radiography of cervical disc(s) using low osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to plain radiography of cervical disc(s) using low osmolar 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 BR011ZZ

UNSPSC 85877255 Plain radiography of cervical disc(s) using low osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific diagnostic imaging procedure; however, the recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code show little alignment with that scope. The three most recent solicitations span diagnostic imaging systems architecture (a Picture Archiving and Communication System implementation), ultrasound equipment procurement, and phlebotomy services—none of which are plain radiography procedures or cervical disc imaging work. The mismatch suggests either upstream classification inconsistency or that issuers are applying this code as a catch-all for clinical diagnostic and lab services. State and local health care systems and public safety agencies are the primary buyers, with San Mateo Medical Center (California), Collier County (Florida), and the Albuquerque Police Department (New Mexico) posting recent solicitations.

The geographic spread spans California, Florida, and New Mexico based on recent activity. San Mateo Medical Center posted an RFP for enterprise-grade diagnostic imaging PACS with a response deadline of August 7, 2026, requiring EPIC EHR integration, 99.9% system uptime, and migration of 65,000 radiology studies, 5,000 cardiology studies, and 8,000 mammography interpretations annually; the County offers a 5–10% local preference for qualified businesses. Collier County posted a Notice of Intent to Single Source ultrasound equipment (KOSMOS platform with TORSO-ONE USB Probe) from EchoNous, Inc., with a March 26, 2026 deadline for protests or alternative-source submissions. The Albuquerque Police Department issued an RFB for on-call phlebotomy technician services covering 24/7 response across Bernalillo County with an anticipated 300 annual calls and a response deadline of February 25, 2026. The code shows minimal recent relevant activity; firms evaluating this commodity should verify whether opportunities are being miscoded or whether the code has drifted to encompass broader clinical services procurement.
