This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to fluoroscopy of left upper extremity arteries 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 B31J1ZZ

UNSPSC 85872176 Fluoroscopy of left upper extremity arteries using low osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that in practice does not align with what state and local governments are actually soliciting. The three recent opportunities tagged under this code cover diagnostic imaging systems (PACS platform implementation), ultrasound equipment procurement (KOSMOS platform with probes), and phlebotomy services (blood draw technician contracts) — none of which match the specific clinical procedure named in the code. The issuing bodies span a county public hospital system (San Mateo County), a county health procurement office (Collier County, Florida), and a municipal police department (City of Albuquerque). The scope divergence suggests either miscoding at the point of posting or that this UNSPSC category is being used as a catch-all for broader diagnostic and clinical support services rather than for the narrow fluoroscopy procedure it nominally describes.

The geographic spread of recent activity includes California (San Mateo County), Florida (Collier County), and New Mexico (City of Albuquerque). San Mateo Medical Center posted an RFP for Diagnostic Imaging PACS due August 7, 2026, seeking enterprise-grade system implementation with EPIC EHR integration, data migration from legacy ScImage infrastructure, and 99.9% uptime performance; the solicitation applies a 5–10% local preference under county ordinance and requires compliance with HIPAA Business Associate Agreements and living wage minimums of $17.00 per hour. Collier County issued a Notice of Intent to Single Source EchoNous, Inc. for KOSMOS ultrasound platform equipment and a five-year warranty, posted April 1, 2026, with a March 26, 2026 deadline for contesting the single-source designation. The Albuquerque Police Department posted an RFB for on-call phlebotomy technician services due February 25, 2026, anticipating approximately 300 annual calls with 24/7 availability and one-hour response times across Bernalillo County. The code shows limited recent activity and poor alignment between the stated commodity definition and actual procurement work.
