UNSPSC 85873515: Fluoroscopy of bilateral jugular veins using low osmolar contrast, guidance

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to fluoroscopy of bilateral jugular veins using low osmolar contrast, guidancefluoroscopy of bilateral jugular veins using low osmolar contrast, guidance. 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 B5151ZA

UNSPSC 85873515 Fluoroscopy of bilateral jugular veins using low osmolar contrast, guidance is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific diagnostic imaging procedure, yet the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show little direct alignment with the procedural scope. The three most recent opportunities—a diagnostic imaging PACS system implementation at San Mateo Medical Center, special education contracted services at Birdville Independent School District in Texas, and a temporary health professional staffing vehicle at Santa Clara County Health System—span clinical information technology, K–12 education, and healthcare workforce contracting respectively. None reflects fluoroscopy services or low osmolar contrast administration. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in the source data or that this Commodity code is being used as a catch-all for disparate health-related procurements. The issuing-body mix includes county health systems, independent school districts, and county departments—a fragmented buyer base without obvious repeat concentration under this code.

The geographic spread of recent activity spans California (San Mateo County, Santa Clara County) and Texas (Birdville Independent School District in Tarrant County), with no indication of broader national activity. The most recent opportunity is San Mateo Medical Center's RFP for Diagnostic Imaging PACS implementation, due October 21, 2026, requiring enterprise-grade picture archiving and communication system deployment with EPIC integration, 99.9% uptime, and data migration from the existing ScImage system completed within 9–12 months; evaluation emphasizes project approach (30 points), firm qualifications (25 points), team qualifications (20 points), and price (25 points). Santa Clara County Health System posted a non-exclusive multiple-award qualification vehicle on July 7, 2026, for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories, including Diagnostic Imaging/Radiology, with proposals due October 7, 2026. Given the code's mismatch with actual procurements, pursue opportunities only if your firm's expertise aligns with the specific issuing body and service category, not the code descriptor.
