UNSPSC 85873702: Plain radiography of bilateral lower extremity veins using low osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to plain radiography of bilateral lower extremity 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 B50D1ZZ

UNSPSC 85873702 Plain radiography of bilateral lower extremity veins using low osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that shows minimal direct alignment with recent state and local solicitation activity. The code nominally describes a specific diagnostic imaging procedure using contrast media, but the recent opportunities posted under this code instead reflect broader healthcare procurement across diagnostic imaging infrastructure, special education services, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which match the narrow technical scope of bilateral lower-extremity venography with contrast.

The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the state and local procurement databases or that this Commodity code does not currently serve as an active classification for substantive state or local contracting. No recent opportunities directly solicit contrast media, radiography equipment, or the specific imaging service named in the code. The San Mateo Medical Center RFP for a Diagnostic Imaging PACS system (due October 21, 2026) touches imaging infrastructure but encompasses enterprise radiology, cardiology, and mammography systems — not a single procedure type or contrast product. The Birdville Independent School District and Santa Clara County Health System solicitations posted in the same timeframe address special education staffing and temporary clinical personnel, respectively, and carry no connection to radiography or contrast media procurement. Business development professionals monitoring this code should expect limited recent activity and should verify coding accuracy with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities flagged under this classification.
