UNSPSC 85872015: Fluoroscopy of bilateral vertebral arteries using high osmolar contrast, laser intraoperative

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to fluoroscopy of bilateral vertebral arteries using high osmolar contrast, laser intraoperativefluoroscopy of bilateral vertebral arteries using high 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 B31G010

UNSPSC 85872015 Fluoroscopy of bilateral vertebral arteries using high osmolar contrast, laser intraoperative is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its technical specification and the state and local procurement activity it currently tags. The code's nominal scope describes a highly specific diagnostic imaging procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under it do not solicit fluoroscopy services or related radiologic procedures. Instead, the tagged solicitations span diagnostic imaging infrastructure (a Picture Archiving and Communication System platform), school-based special education contracted services (audiologist, speech therapist, occupational therapist, and related roles), and a temporary health professional staffing qualification vehicle covering audiology, diagnostic imaging, respiratory care, and surgical support. The mismatch suggests either catalog miscoding by issuing bodies or drift in how the code is applied to procurements. The health professional staffing solicitation from Santa Clara County does cover diagnostic imaging under a broader health professional pool, but the special education services from Birdville Independent School District and the PACS infrastructure from San Mateo Medical Center represent unrelated functional categories.

Recent activity appears concentrated in California and Texas. San Mateo Medical Center (San Mateo County) posted an RFP for Diagnostic Imaging PACS with a due date of October 21, 2026, requiring enterprise-grade implementation supporting radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging with EPIC integration and completion within 9–12 months. Santa Clara County Health System posted a non-exclusive multiple-award qualification vehicle (posted July 7, 2026, due October 7, 2026) to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary categories including diagnostic imaging and radiology, with no guaranteed work volume. Birdville Independent School District in Texas posted an RFQ for special education contracted services due October 21, 2026, covering 23 line items. The code does not reliably reflect current state and local procurement activity for the procedure it nominally describes.
