UNSPSC 85882025: Planar nuclear medicine imaging of multiple anatomical regions using other radionuclide

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields an intervention or procedure of planar nuclear medicine imaging of multiple anatomical regions using other radionuclide. 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 CW1YYZZ

UNSPSC 85882025 Planar nuclear medicine imaging of multiple anatomical regions using other radionuclide is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific modality in nuclear medicine imaging, yet the three most recent state and local opportunities tagged under it span diagnostic imaging Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) implementation, special education contracted services for multiple disciplines unrelated to imaging, and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories including diagnostic imaging/radiology. Only one of the three opportunities—the Santa Clara Health System temporary health professional staffing pool—includes diagnostic imaging or radiology as a named service category, and that solicitation encompasses staffing for radiology technicians or related roles rather than the nuclear medicine imaging equipment or services the code nominally describes. The issuing bodies soliciting under this code are county and county-affiliated public health systems and school districts, not specialists in nuclear medicine procurement.

The geographic spread covers California (San Mateo County Medical Center, Santa Clara County Health System) and Texas (Birdville Independent School District). The San Mateo Medical Center posted an RFP for Diagnostic Imaging PACS with proposals due October 21, 2026, seeking enterprise-grade system implementation with EPIC Electronic Health Record integration supporting radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging across approximately 65,000 radiology studies and 8,000 mammography interpretations annually. Santa Clara Health System posted an RFQ on July 7, 2026 with proposals due October 7, 2026 to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing including diagnostic imaging and radiology services on a non-exclusive, multiple-award basis with no guaranteed volume. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope—nuclear medicine imaging modalities—and the actual recent opportunities suggests this code is either miscategorized in vendor databases or rarely reflects the work state and local governments actually procure under it.
