UNSPSC 85874106: Ultrasonography of superior vena cava, intravascular

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to ultrasonography of superior vena cava, intravascularultrasonography of superior vena cava, intravascular. 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 B548ZZ3

UNSPSC 85874106 Ultrasonography of superior vena cava, intravascular is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific diagnostic imaging procedure, but the most recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code do not match the code's stated scope. The three recent solicitations tagged to this code—San Mateo Medical Center's diagnostic imaging PACS system procurement, Birdville Independent School District's special education contracted services (including speech therapy, occupational therapy, and vision evaluation), and Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing vehicle (covering audiology, diagnostic imaging, and therapy services)—reflect healthcare staffing, information systems, and educational support services rather than a discrete ultrasound procedure. The issuing bodies span county health systems, independent school districts, and county-operated medical centers across California and Texas, suggesting this code may be misapplied to capture broad health professional services rather than imaging procedures specifically.

Activity under this code appears scattered across state and local health systems and school districts in California and Texas, with no clear concentration. San Mateo Medical Center posted an RFP for a diagnostic imaging PACS implementation due October 21, 2026, requiring EPIC integration and five-year agreement terms; Birdville Independent School District issued an RFQ for special education contracted services due the same date, with contract start December 1, 2026 and optional three-year renewals; and Santa Clara Health System established a non-exclusive, multiple-award qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing with a five-year vehicle term and no guaranteed volume. The code shows little recent activity directly aligned to ultrasound procedures for superior vena cava imaging, and business development professionals should verify whether this code is the appropriate tracking mechanism for their healthcare service offerings or whether a different UNSPSC classification better represents their scope.
