UNSPSC 85877514: Plain radiography of right ureter using other contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to plain radiography of right ureter 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 BT06YZZ

UNSPSC 85877514 Plain radiography of right ureter using other contrast, a Commodity code, shows no coherent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The three recent opportunities tagged under this code represent unrelated diagnostic imaging and medical services: a Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) implementation, ultrasound equipment procurement, and phlebotomy blood draw services. None of these solicitations concern urinary tract radiography or the specific imaging modality the code describes. The mismatch suggests either misclassification by issuing bodies or that the code itself is not the appropriate taxonomy anchor for state and local medical imaging and laboratory services procurement.

The issuing bodies include San Mateo Medical Center (a county-operated public hospital system), Collier County Procurement Services (single-source ultrasound equipment), and the Albuquerque Police Department (on-call phlebotomy). Geographic activity is scattered across California, Florida, and New Mexico with no concentration pattern. San Mateo Medical Center's PACS RFP, due August 7, 2026, represents the largest discrete project, seeking enterprise-grade imaging system implementation with EPIC Electronic Health Record integration, 99.9% uptime requirements, and a nine- to twelve-month implementation window. The divergence between the code's technical name and the actual work being bought indicates that state and local procurement offices may be applying this Commodity code inconsistently or that it does not serve as a reliable filter for medical imaging and diagnostic services opportunities in the state and local market.
