UNSPSC 85873610: Fluoroscopy of left subclavian vein using other contrast, guidance

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to fluoroscopy of left subclavian vein using other contrast, guidancefluoroscopy of left subclavian vein 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 B517YZA

UNSPSC 85873610 Fluoroscopy of left subclavian vein using other contrast, guidance (Commodity) shows minimal relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific radiological imaging procedure performed on an individual patient—does not match the nature of state and local government contracting, which procures systems, services, and vendor pools rather than discrete clinical procedures. The three recent opportunities posted under or near this code involve enterprise diagnostic imaging systems (San Mateo Medical Center's PACS procurement), broad special education contracted services across multiple disciplines (Birdville ISD), and temporary health professional staffing qualification pools (Santa Clara Health System). None of these opportunities represent purchasing of the fluoroscopy procedure itself; the PACS opportunity involves imaging infrastructure and software, not individual procedure provision.

The mismatch between the code's procedural definition and the actual procurement landscape suggests this Commodity code may be incorrectly applied by issuing bodies or may see use primarily in reference materials rather than active solicitations. State and local governments contract for diagnostic imaging capabilities, clinical staffing, and equipment—not individual fluoroscopic procedures billed to patients. Business development professionals should treat this code as a low-activity category and focus instead on higher-tier imaging and health services codes (such as diagnostic imaging systems, radiology services, or health professional staffing families) where state and local procurement activity clusters around equipment acquisition, system implementation, and vendor management rather than point-of-care clinical procedures.
