UNSPSC 85872237: Plain radiography of left pulmonary artery using other contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to plain radiography of left pulmonary 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 B30TYZZ

UNSPSC 85872237 Plain radiography of left pulmonary artery using other contrast is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific radiological procedure — contrast-enhanced imaging of the left pulmonary artery — but the three most recent opportunities tagged under it involve diagnostic imaging system infrastructure, school-based special education services, and temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories. None of these solicitations concern plain radiography procedures or pulmonary artery imaging specifically. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in the issuing bodies' procurement systems or a code tier mismatch in the underlying taxonomy.

The recent opportunities span health systems and school districts across California and Texas but do not represent a coherent market for the service named in the code. San Mateo Medical Center (San Mateo County, California) posted an RFP on October 7, 2026 for a diagnostic imaging PACS system supporting approximately 65,000 radiology studies annually with a due date of October 21, 2026; Santa Clara County Health System (California) posted an RFQ on July 7, 2026 establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary diagnostic imaging and radiology staffing with a due date of October 7, 2026; and Birdville Independent School District (Tarrant County, Texas) posted an RFP on September 18, 2026 for special education contracted services including vision evaluation, due October 21, 2026. The code appears unsuitable for business development targeting in its current form given the divergence between its stated scope and actual procurement use.
