UNSPSC 85873522: Fluoroscopy of left jugular veins using low osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to fluoroscopy of left jugular veins 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 B5141ZZ

UNSPSC 85873522 Fluoroscopy of left jugular veins using low osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific diagnostic imaging procedure — fluoroscopic examination of the left jugular vein using a particular contrast agent — but the three most recent opportunities tagged to it involve diagnostic imaging system infrastructure, portable ultrasound equipment, and phlebotomy services. Of these, only the San Mateo Medical Center diagnostic imaging PACS solicitation bears tangential relevance to imaging capabilities, though it targets picture archiving and communication systems rather than procedure-level service delivery. The other two opportunities (ultrasound equipment from Collier County, Florida, and blood draw services from Albuquerque, New Mexico) fall outside the scope of the code's nominal definition entirely. The issuing bodies include a county health system (San Mateo Medical Center), a county procurement division (Collier County), and a city police department (Albuquerque Police Department), reflecting fragmented use across health and law-enforcement settings.

Geographic activity is sparse and scattered: San Mateo County in California posted the PACS opportunity on July 9, 2026, with proposals due August 7, 2026, under an RFP structure offering local preference of 5–10% and requiring EPIC integration, 99.9% system uptime, and HIPAA Business Associate Agreement compliance; Collier County, Florida, issued a Notice of Intent to Single Source on April 1, 2026, for EchoNous ultrasound equipment; and Albuquerque, New Mexico, posted an RFB for phlebotomy services on January 26, 2026, with bids due February 25, 2026. The code shows no pattern of repeat buyers or concentrated procurement activity. The mismatch between the code's specific clinical-procedure nomenclature and the generalist infrastructure and service opportunities tagged to it suggests either classification inconsistency or that the code rarely represents the actual work being procured at state and local level.
