UNSPSC 85871904: Plain radiography of bilateral external carotid arteries using high osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to plain radiography of bilateral external carotid arteries using high 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 B30C0ZZ

UNSPSC 85871904 Plain radiography of bilateral external carotid arteries using high osmolar contrast (Commodity) shows minimal alignment between the code's nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's technical framing describes a specific diagnostic imaging procedure, yet the three most recent opportunities posted under it cover Diagnostic Imaging PACS system implementation, special education contracted services including speech-language and occupational therapy, and temporary health professional staffing across clinical categories. None of these solicitations directly procure plain radiography services or high-osmolar contrast agents. The mismatch suggests either tagging inconsistency in the state and local procurement system or that this Commodity code is being used as a broad catchall for health care–related services beyond the specific procedure it names.

Geographic activity spans California and Texas based on recent postings. San Mateo County (California) posted a Diagnostic Imaging PACS RFP (Solicitation 660002526251) due October 21, 2026, seeking enterprise-grade picture archiving and communication system implementation with EPIC integration to replace a legacy ScImage PACS system serving approximately 65,000 radiology studies annually. Birdville Independent School District (northeast Tarrant County, Texas) posted special education contracted services (Solicitation 01027) due October 21, 2026, covering 23 line items including diagnostician, physical therapist, and speech-language therapist services across 30 campuses. Santa Clara County Health System (California) issued a multiple-award qualification solicitation (RFSQHHSFY270052) due October 7, 2026, to establish a vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories including Diagnostic Imaging/Radiology. The code shows no recent activity in other states or from federal agencies, and no repeat-buyer pattern emerges from this narrow set.
