UNSPSC 85881211: Tomographic (tomo) nuclear medicine imaging of right breast using technetium 99m (tc-99m)

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields an intervention or procedure of tomographic (tomo) nuclear medicine imaging of right breast using technetium 99m (tc-99m). 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 CH201ZZ

UNSPSC 85881211 Tomographic (tomo) nuclear medicine imaging of right breast using technetium 99m (tc-99m) is a Commodity code. The recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not actually solicit tomographic nuclear medicine imaging services. The three most recent opportunities—a Diagnostic Imaging PACS system implementation at San Mateo Medical Center, a special education contracted services solicitation from Birdville Independent School District in Texas, and a temporary health professional staffing qualification vehicle from Santa Clara County Health System—bear no relationship to the code's nominal scope of nuclear medicine imaging procedures. The first opportunity involves Picture Archiving and Communication System software and implementation rather than imaging services themselves; the second covers educational support services unrelated to healthcare imaging; and the third establishes a vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing across multiple specialties but does not address nuclear medicine imaging specifically.

This code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated scope. The mismatch between the code classification and the actual opportunities suggests either a tagging error in the source data or a fundamental misalignment in how this particular Commodity code is being applied by state and local procurement offices. Business development professionals evaluating whether to pursue opportunities under this code should verify directly with issuing bodies that subsequent solicitations actually target nuclear medicine imaging services or related equipment and supplies before allocating pursuit resources.
