UNSPSC 85871713: Fluoroscopy of right brachiocephalic-subclavian artery using other contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to fluoroscopy of right brachiocephalic-subclavian artery using other 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 B311YZZ

UNSPSC 85871713 Fluoroscopy of right brachiocephalic-subclavian artery using other contrast is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and the state and local opportunities currently tagged to it. The code describes a specific diagnostic imaging procedure — fluoroscopy of a particular arterial site — yet the recent solicitations under this code do not involve procurement of fluoroscopy services themselves. Instead, the tagged opportunities cover diagnostic imaging infrastructure (a PACS system), school-based special education contracted services unrelated to medical imaging, and a general health professional staffing pool that includes radiology positions alongside audiology, cardiology, therapy, and other ancillary roles. The mismatch suggests either a data-tagging error in the state and local procurement system or a misclassification by issuing bodies unfamiliar with UNSPSC taxonomy. None of the three recent opportunities target fluoroscopy procedures, imaging equipment, or related diagnostic services as their primary procurement focus.

The recent activity spans three different issuing bodies across California and Texas: San Mateo Medical Center (a public hospital system) posted an RFP for a diagnostic imaging PACS system with a response date of October 21, 2026; Birdville Independent School District in northeast Tarrant County, Texas issued a proposal request for special education contracted services (due October 21, 2026) unrelated to medical services; and the County of Santa Clara Health System solicited a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing with a response date of October 7, 2026. Given the disconnect between the code's stated procedure and the actual work being solicited, this code warrants clarification from state procurement offices before pursuing opportunities tagged to it.
