UNSPSC 85871644: Fluoroscopy of thoraco-abdominal aorta using low osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to fluoroscopy of thoraco-abdominal aorta using low osmolar contrast. 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 B31P1ZZ

UNSPSC 85871644 Fluoroscopy of thoraco-abdominal aorta using low osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that encompasses diagnostic imaging equipment, systems, and related clinical services procured by state and local health authorities. The recent opportunities posted under this code reveal a mismatch between the nominal scope—a specific radiological procedure using contrast media—and the actual purchasing activity, which centers on enterprise imaging infrastructure, ultrasound equipment, and clinical laboratory services. State and local health systems, county medical centers, and law enforcement agencies are the primary issuing bodies soliciting under this code. The work involves Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) implementations with Electronic Health Record integration, portable ultrasound platforms with proprietary software licensing, and on-call phlebotomy services. These procurements reflect broad diagnostic and laboratory service consolidation rather than the narrow procedural focus the code name suggests, indicating that the code is being used as a catch-all taxonomy marker for clinical diagnostic capabilities across multiple modalities.

Geographic activity concentrates in California and Florida, with representation from New Mexico. San Mateo County, California, posted an RFP for a diagnostic imaging PACS system due August 7, 2026, requiring enterprise-grade implementation supporting radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging with EPIC integration, 99.9% uptime, and a 9–12 month implementation window. Collier County, Florida, issued a notice of intent to single-source ultrasound equipment from EchoNous, Inc., through March 26, 2026. The Albuquerque Police Department posted an RFB for on-call phlebotomy technician services due February 25, 2026, seeking 24/7 coverage across Bernalillo County with anticipated volume of 300 annual service calls. The code shows sparse and fragmented recent activity with three distinct service lines rather than sustained procurement of the specific procedure named in the code title, suggesting limited relevance to vendors specializing in contrast-enhanced aortic imaging procedures.
