UNSPSC 85873521: Fluoroscopy of left jugular veins using other contrast, guidance

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to fluoroscopy of left jugular veins using other contrast, guidancefluoroscopy of left jugular veins using other 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 B514YZA

UNSPSC 85873521 Fluoroscopy of left jugular veins using other contrast, guidance is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific diagnostic imaging procedure; however, the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it show little alignment with this clinical definition. The three most recent opportunities span diagnostic imaging systems procurement (San Mateo Medical Center's PACS platform implementation), special education contracted services (Birdville Independent School District), and temporary health professional staffing (Santa Clara County Health System). Only the San Mateo PACS solicitation relates to diagnostic imaging infrastructure, and none target fluoroscopy procedures specifically. The mismatch suggests either tagging error in state and local procurement systems or that this code is being used as a catchall for health services work. State and local issuing bodies using this code include county health systems, county-operated medical centers, and independent school districts.

The recent activity shows geographic spread across California (San Mateo County and Santa Clara County) and Texas (Birdville ISD in Tarrant County). San Mateo Medical Center (San Mateo County) posted an RFP (Solicitation 660002526251) on October 7, 2026, due October 21, 2026, for a Diagnostic Imaging PACS supporting radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging with EPIC integration, processing approximately 65,000 annual radiology studies and 8,000 mammography interpretations, with implementation within 9–12 months. Santa Clara County Health System posted an RFQ (RFSQHHSFY270052) on July 7, 2026, due October 7, 2026, establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing including diagnostic imaging and radiology services on a non-exclusive, five-year basis with no guaranteed work. The Birdville ISD solicitation (01027) is unrelated to the code's nominal scope. Given the narrow relevance of actual recent work to the fluoroscopy code definition, activity under this code warrants verification before pursuit.
