UNSPSC 85873229: Fluoroscopy of right renal vein using low osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to fluoroscopy of right renal vein 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 B51J1ZZ

UNSPSC 85873229 Fluoroscopy of right renal vein using low osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that presents a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and the actual work state and local governments are buying under it. The code's specific medical procedure label does not align with the recent state and local opportunities tagged to it. The most substantial recent solicitation—San Mateo Medical Center's request for a Diagnostic Imaging PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System)—involves enterprise-grade imaging infrastructure, data migration, EPIC integration, and vendor qualifications in large-scale healthcare IT implementation, not the performance of a specific diagnostic imaging procedure. The two other opportunities tagged to this code (Birdville Independent School District's special education contracted services and Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing) involve procurement of personnel and services entirely outside the radiological imaging domain. State and local procurement bodies appear to be using this code incorrectly or for a broader imaging-systems category than the code's name suggests.

Recent activity shows limited geographic spread and no coherent cluster of repeat buyers under this code. San Mateo Medical Center (California), Birdville Independent School District (Texas), and Santa Clara Health System (California) represent three different issuing-body types—a county health system, a school district, and another county health system—with no clear pattern of procurement concentration. The PACS solicitation (RFP, due October 21, 2026) from San Mateo Medical Center is the only opportunity closely related to diagnostic imaging work; it involves a 9–12 month implementation, five-year agreement term, and compliance with HIPAA, Living Wage Ordinance requirements, and Section 504 standards. The mismatch between code label and actual opportunities suggests that business development professionals should verify the correct UNSPSC classification before pursuing work under this code or should treat it as a low-relevance category pending clarification by issuing bodies on their intended scope.
