UNSPSC 85874144: Fluoroscopy of superior vena cava using high osmolar contrast, guidance

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to fluoroscopy of superior vena cava using high osmolar contrast, guidancefluoroscopy of superior vena cava using high osmolar contrast, guidance. 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 B5180ZA

UNSPSC 85874144 Fluoroscopy of superior vena cava using high osmolar contrast, guidance is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and actual state and local procurement activity. The code's technical name describes a specific diagnostic imaging procedure, yet the recent opportunities in the dataset are tagged to this code and center instead on enterprise-scale health information systems, education services, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve fluoroscopy or contrast-based vascular imaging as a purchased service or product. San Mateo Medical Center is procuring a diagnostic imaging PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) with EPIC integration to support 65,000 radiology studies, 5,000 cardiology studies, and 8,000 mammography interpretations annually; Birdville Independent School District is requesting sealed proposals for special education contracted services (audiologists, diagnosticians, speech therapists, and related professionals); and Santa Clara County Health System is establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories including diagnostic imaging and radiology. These solicitations reflect information technology infrastructure, education support, and workforce augmentation — not the procedural imaging service the code nominally describes.

The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned to its stated scope. The three posted opportunities (San Mateo Medical Center PACS, posted October 7, 2026 with response due October 21, 2026; Birdville ISD special education services, due October 21, 2026; Santa Clara County temporary health professional staffing, due October 7, 2026) are geographically concentrated in California and Texas but are unrelated to fluoroscopy purchasing or imaging procedure provision. State and local procurement under this code does not appear to track the procedural imaging service the UNSPSC taxonomy nominally identifies.
