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 B31PZZZ

UNSPSC 85871641 Fluoroscopy of thoraco-abdominal aorta is a Commodity code. Recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code show a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and actual purchasing activity. The code's name describes a specific diagnostic imaging procedure — fluoroscopic examination of the aorta — yet the opportunities posted under it span clinical imaging systems, ultrasound equipment, and phlebotomy services. The San Mateo Medical Center RFP for a Diagnostic Imaging PACS represents enterprise-grade picture archiving and communication systems supporting radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging across 65,000 annual radiology studies and 5,000 cardiology studies. Collier County's single-source notice targets specialized ultrasound equipment (KOSMOS platform with TORSO-ONE USB probe) and related warranties and software licensing. The Albuquerque Police Department's RFB covers on-call phlebotomy technicians for blood draw services supporting law enforcement chain-of-custody requirements. None of these opportunities align directly with thoraco-abdominal aorta fluoroscopy; the code appears to be capturing diagnostic imaging and clinical services more broadly, suggesting either tagging imprecision by issuing jurisdictions or a mismatch between the code's historical definition and current procurement use.

Issuing bodies include county public health systems (San Mateo Medical Center, a hospital and clinic operator), county procurement services acting for varied departments (Collier County), and municipal law enforcement agencies (Albuquerque Police Department). Geographic activity centers on California (San Mateo County) and Florida (Collier County), with activity in New Mexico. Recent representative opportunities include the San Mateo Medical Center RFP (Diagnostic Imaging PACS, due August 7, 2026) emphasizing EPIC integration, 99.9% uptime, and migration from legacy ScImage systems, with evaluation weighted toward project approach (30 points), firm qualifications (25 points), team qualifications (20 points), and price (25 points); and Collier County's single-source notice for EchoNous ultrasound equipment and services (posted April 1, 2026, with March 26, 2026 protest deadline). The code shows limited relevant recent activity when evaluated against its stated scope, and bidders should verify code applicability before investment in pursuit strategy.
