UNSPSC 85873938: Fluoroscopy of left pulmonary vein using other contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to fluoroscopy of left pulmonary vein using other 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 B51RYZZ

UNSPSC 85873938 Fluoroscopy of left pulmonary vein using other contrast is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific radiologic procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it show minimal alignment with that scope. The three recent solicitations include a diagnostic imaging Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) implementation, a single-source procurement for ultrasound equipment with a 5-year warranty, and an on-call blood draw service contract. Of these, only the PACS solicitation touches imaging capture and archival; the ultrasound and phlebotomy procurements fall outside the code's stated procedure entirely. The code appears to reflect a mismatch between the UNSPSC taxonomy and the actual work being bought, suggesting that state and local procurement offices are applying this Commodity code to health care and clinical service categories that do not fit its procedural definition.

The recent activity spans three distinct jurisdictions with no repeat buyers: San Mateo County (California), Collier County (Florida), and the City of Albuquerque (New Mexico). San Mateo Medical Center posted an RFP on July 9, 2026, for PACS implementation with proposals due August 7, 2026, requiring EPIC integration, 9-12 month deployment, and demonstrated PACS experience in public-sector settings. Collier County issued a Notice of Intent to Single Source on April 1, 2026, for EchoNous ultrasound equipment and related services with a two-year term. The Albuquerque Police Department posted an RFB on January 26, 2026, for on-call phlebotomy services covering Bernalillo County with an anticipated 300 annual calls and up to five-year term. Given the diversity of service types and the apparent taxonomic mismatch, this code does not represent a coherent procurement category for state and local buyers and warrants review of how issuing bodies are applying it in practice.
