UNSPSC 85871861: Fluoroscopy of left internal carotid artery using low osmolar contrast, laser intraoperative

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to fluoroscopy of left internal carotid artery using low osmolar contrast, laser intraoperativefluoroscopy of left internal carotid artery using low osmolar contrast, laser intraoperative. 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 B317110

UNSPSC 85871861 Fluoroscopy of left internal carotid artery using low osmolar contrast, laser intraoperative is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific diagnostic imaging procedure. Recent state and local contract activity shows a mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement: the recent opportunities posted under this code do not target fluoroscopy services or related clinical procedures. Instead, they reflect a broader mix of health system and education staffing, including diagnostic imaging system infrastructure (San Mateo Medical Center's PACS implementation), special education contracted services (Birdville Independent School District), and a temporary health professional staffing qualification pool covering ancillary clinical categories including diagnostic imaging and radiology (County of Santa Clara Health System). The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its specific procedural scope.

The issuing bodies reflect typical health system and education procurers: a county public hospital system, an independent school district in Texas, and a county health system in California. Geographic activity appears concentrated in California and Texas based on recent postings. The San Mateo Medical Center PACS solicitation (RFP, due October 21, 2026) represents enterprise diagnostic imaging infrastructure rather than individual procedures; the Birdville Independent School District special education solicitation (competitive sealed proposal, due October 21, 2026) and the County of Santa Clara Health System temporary staffing qualification vehicle (RFQ, due October 7, 2026) reflect staffing and services procurement orthogonal to the code's stated clinical procedure focus. Vendors pursuing opportunities under this code should clarify with issuing bodies whether procurement activity is properly tagged or whether the code misclassification reflects broader diagnostic imaging and health professional service categories.
