UNSPSC 85875314: Fluoroscopy of esophagus

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to fluoroscopy of esophagus. 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 BD11ZZZ

UNSPSC 85875314 Fluoroscopy of esophagus is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show no direct alignment with esophageal fluoroscopy procedures. The three most recent opportunities span diagnostic imaging system procurement (PACS infrastructure), special education contracted services (speech language therapy, occupational therapy, and other ancillary clinical roles), and temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary categories including diagnostic imaging and radiology. The code's nominal scope — a specific radiological procedure — does not match the work state and local bodies are actually tagging and buying under it. These opportunities suggest the code may be capturing broader diagnostic imaging procurement, temporary clinical staffing, and health professional services rather than procedure-specific fluoroscopy work.

The issuing bodies are San Mateo Medical Center (a county public hospital system), Birdville Independent School District in northeast Texas, and the County of Santa Clara Health System. Activity is concentrated in California and Texas. San Mateo Medical Center posted an RFP for Diagnostic Imaging PACS with proposals due October 21, 2026, requiring enterprise-grade picture archiving and communication system implementation supporting radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging with EPIC integration and 99.9% system uptime; Birdville ISD posted a competitive sealed proposal for special education contracted services as-needed (23 line items including speech language therapy, occupational therapy, and other roles) with proposals due October 21, 2026; and Santa Clara Health System posted an RFQ to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories including diagnostic imaging and radiology, with proposals due October 7, 2026. Given the mismatch between the code's procedural definition and the infrastructure and staffing services being procured, practitioners should verify code assignment in the actual solicitation documents before bid pursuit.
