UNSPSC 85882714: Tomographic (tomo) nuclear medicine imaging of upper extremity 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 upper extremity 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 CW2M1ZZ

UNSPSC 85882714 Tomographic (tomo) nuclear medicine imaging of upper extremity using technetium 99m (tc-99m) is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The three most recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code are actually soliciting diagnostic imaging PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) implementation, special education contracted services including speech therapy and occupational therapy, and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories including diagnostic imaging and audiology—a clear mismatch with the specific nuclear medicine tomographic imaging service the code names. The code appears to reflect a taxonomy classification mismatch rather than active state and local procurement for tc-99m upper extremity imaging studies or the equipment, radiopharmaceuticals, or technologist services that category would typically encompass.

Given the misalignment between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited under its label, the code does not present a decision-relevant opportunity set for a firm focused on nuclear medicine imaging services or tc-99m imaging supplies. Firms pursuing state and local health system contracts for diagnostic imaging should monitor broader radiology and imaging PACS codes and work directly with county health systems and hospital procurement offices rather than relying on this specific commodity classification. The San Mateo Medical Center PACS solicitation (RFP 660002526251, due October 21, 2026), the Santa Clara Health System temporary staffing vehicle (RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052, closed October 7, 2026), and the Birdville Independent School District special education services RFP (01027, due October 21, 2026) do not represent actionable opportunities under this code for nuclear medicine imaging service delivery.
