UNSPSC 85882419: Tomographic (tomo) nuclear medicine imaging of chest and neck 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 chest and neck 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 CW261ZZ

UNSPSC 85882419 Tomographic (tomo) nuclear medicine imaging of chest and neck using technetium 99m (tc-99m) is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local opportunities posted under it. The three most recent solicitations tagged to this code cover diagnostic imaging PACS system implementation, special education contracted services, and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories — none of which directly concern tc-99m nuclear medicine imaging protocols or equipment. The San Mateo Medical Center PACS solicitation addresses enterprise imaging infrastructure including radiology, cardiology, and dental modalities but does not specify nuclear medicine as a functional requirement. The Birdville Independent School District opportunity involves school-based contracted clinical services unrelated to imaging. The Santa Clara Health System temporary staffing solicitation includes diagnostic imaging and radiology as one category among multiple ancillary health professions but does not isolate nuclear medicine or isotope-specific imaging services.

The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned to its nominal scope. Geographic spread across the three posted opportunities spans California (San Mateo County, Santa Clara County) and Texas (Tarrant County), but the opportunities themselves do not reflect procurement under the tc-99m nuclear medicine imaging taxonomy. State and local entities purchasing under this code, if doing so at all, are not surfacing substantive nuclear medicine imaging requests in the recent notice stream. Business development professionals evaluating pursuit under this code should verify whether the code is in fact being used by target jurisdictions for nuclear medicine service contracting, or whether state and local buyers are tagging such work to broader imaging or clinical services codes instead.
