UNSPSC 85874117: Computerized tomography (ct scan) of inferior vena cava using low osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to computerized tomography (ct scan) of inferior vena cava 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 B5291ZZ

UNSPSC 85874117 Computerized tomography (CT scan) of inferior vena cava using low osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific diagnostic imaging procedure, but recent state and local opportunities show minimal alignment with this narrow clinical specification. The three most recent opportunities tagged under this code span hospital imaging system infrastructure (San Mateo Medical Center's PACS implementation), school district special education services (Birdville Independent School District), and health system temporary staffing across multiple ancillary clinical roles (Santa Clara County Health System). Only the San Mateo Medical Center PACS solicitation relates to diagnostic imaging at all, and it addresses system architecture and data migration rather than a specific CT imaging protocol. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding within state and local procurement systems or that this Commodity code is being used as a catch-all for health services purchasing without specificity to imaging modality.

The San Mateo Medical Center PACS RFP (due October 21, 2026) is the only recent opportunity with concrete relevance to the code's imaging focus; it calls for enterprise-grade picture archiving and communication system implementation supporting radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging with EPIC integration, migration of 65,000 annual radiology studies from the existing ScImage system, and a five-year agreement term starting within 9–12 months. Santa Clara County Health System's temporary health professional staffing RFQ (posted July 7, 2026, due October 7, 2026) included diagnostic imaging/radiology among 13 eligible service categories but operates as a non-exclusive, five-year qualified-vendor-list vehicle with no guaranteed work volume and scope to be negotiated case-by-case. Activity is concentrated in California. The code shows little recent purchasing momentum tied to its stated specification; the miscoding of unrelated school district and staffing services suggests checking downstream procurement records for opportunities actually targeting imaging services or equipment before investing pursuit effort.
