UNSPSC 85873612 Fluoroscopy of left subclavian vein using low osmolar contrast, guidance is a Commodity code representing a specific diagnostic imaging procedure. Recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show minimal alignment with its nominal scope; the three most recent solicitations address diagnostic imaging infrastructure (Picture Archiving and Communication Systems at San Mateo Medical Center), special education contracted services at an independent school district in Texas, and a temporary health professional staffing pool at Santa Clara County Health System. The San Mateo opportunity is the only procurement directly related to diagnostic imaging capability, but it focuses on enterprise PACS software, implementation, and data migration rather than on individual fluoroscopy procedures or imaging protocols. The mismatch between the code's narrow procedure-level definition and the actual purchasing activity—which centers on systems, staffing, and service delivery infrastructure—suggests this code sees little relevant recent state and local procurement activity tied to its specific clinical procedure.

State and local health systems and hospital authorities are the primary issuers posting under this code, with geographic activity concentrated in California (San Mateo County and Santa Clara County) and Texas (Birdville Independent School District). The San Mateo Medical Center RFP, posted October 7, 2026 with a due date of October 21, 2026, targets PACS implementation with EPIC integration, 65,000 annual radiology studies, and 9–12 month implementation. Santa Clara County Health System's RFQ, posted July 7, 2026 with a due date of October 7, 2026, establishes a five-year qualified vendor list for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories, including diagnostic imaging/radiology, but does not specify fluoroscopy or procedure-level imaging work. The code's current activity does not support a strong pipeline for state and local buyers focused on the specific procedure named in the code's definition.
