UNSPSC 85877516: Plain radiography of right ureter using high osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to plain radiography of right ureter using high 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 BT060ZZ

UNSPSC 85877516, Plain radiography of right ureter using high osmolar contrast, is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The three recent opportunities posted under this code involve diagnostic imaging system procurement and health professional staffing services — enterprise-level PACS implementation, special education contracted services across multiple disciplines, and temporary health professional staffing pools spanning ancillary clinical categories — none of which aligns with the specific radiological procedure the code nominally describes. The code appears to be applied inconsistently or incorrectly by issuing bodies, and no recent opportunities reflect purchasing of plain radiography services or high osmolar contrast materials for ureter imaging specifically.

The recent activity spans two states: San Mateo County, California (San Mateo Medical Center's PACS procurement, posted October 7, 2026, due October 21, 2026); Tarrant County, Texas (Birdville Independent School District special education services, posted September 18, 2026, due October 21, 2026); and Santa Clara County, California (Health System temporary health professional staffing pool, posted July 7, 2026, due October 7, 2026). Given the lack of alignment between the code's stated clinical scope and the actual solicitations, this code does not represent a reliable procurement category for business development purposes. Firms pursuing diagnostic imaging, health professional staffing, or education-related clinical services should confirm the correct UNSPSC classification with issuing bodies rather than rely on this code's taxonomy.
