UNSPSC 85872908: Plain radiography of pelvic arteries using low osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to plain radiography of pelvic 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 B40C1ZZ

UNSPSC 85872908 Plain radiography of pelvic arteries using low osmolar contrast (Commodity) shows minimal direct relevance to recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific radiological diagnostic procedure using contrast media, yet the three recent opportunities posted under this code address diagnostic imaging infrastructure, special education services, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve pelvic arterial radiography or contrast-media procurement. San Mateo Medical Center posted an RFP for enterprise-grade Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) implementation with October 21, 2026 response deadline, a capital technology project supporting 65,000 annual radiology studies plus cardiology and mammography; Birdville Independent School District (Texas) solicited competitive sealed proposals for special education contracted services including audiologists and therapists due October 21, 2026; and Santa Clara County Health System established a qualified vendor pool for temporary staffing in 13 ancillary health professional categories including Diagnostic Imaging/Radiology, with October 7, 2026 deadline. None of these opportunities explicitly procure contrast media, diagnostic procedures, or radiological supplies aligned with the code's stated scope.

The mismatch between code and opportunity suggests either data-tagging error in the state and local systems or that this UNSPSC commodity code does not reflect current buying patterns among state and local healthcare entities. Bidders evaluating this code should verify the actual scope through direct contact with issuing procurement offices rather than relying on the code's nominal description, as the recent record does not support meaningful activity in pelvic arterial radiography or related contrast-media procurement in the jurisdictions posting under this classification.
