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 BT46ZZZ

UNSPSC 85877305 Ultrasonography of right ureter is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific ultrasound diagnostic procedure, but recent state and local opportunities posted under it span a much broader scope of diagnostic imaging and ultrasound equipment procurement. The San Mateo Medical Center RFP for a Diagnostic Imaging PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) solicited enterprise-grade software and implementation supporting radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging with EPIC integration—a system-wide infrastructure project rather than a single procedure code. The Collier County Notice of Intent to Single Source EchoNous, Inc. specified the KOSMOS platform with TORSO-ONE USB Probe ultrasound equipment, a 5-year product warranty, software licensing, and a custom carrying bag. A third opportunity from Albuquerque Police Department sought on-call blood draw services by certified phlebotomy technicians, which is plainly unrelated to the code's nominal ultrasound imaging scope and suggests a tagging mismatch in the source system. The mix of issuing bodies includes county health systems and special districts, with San Mateo County's public hospital and Collier County government appearing as recent solicitors, indicating that health care delivery organizations at the county and municipal level use this code when procuring diagnostic equipment and related infrastructure.

Recent activity concentrates in California and Florida, with San Mateo County posting an RFP due August 7, 2026, for PACS implementation and Collier County posting a notice of intent on April 1, 2026, for ultrasound equipment. The San Mateo RFP is the most substantive recent opportunity under this code, requesting comprehensive proposals with itemized pricing for software, implementation, migration, training, and maintenance; the scope requires successful prior PACS implementations with EPIC integration, public sector or large health system experience, and three to five client references, with evaluation weighting 30 points to project approach, 25 to firm qualifications, 20 to team qualifications, and 25 to price. San Mateo County applies a local preference of 5–10% under County Ordinance Chapter 2.89 and enforces a living wage floor of $17.00 per hour with annual CPI-U adjustments capped at 3.5%. The code shows limited recent activity overall, and the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited (particularly the inclusion of an unrelated phlebotomy services bid) suggests that this Commodity code is not consistently applied in current state and local procurement systems.
