This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to fluoroscopy of cervical facet joint(s) 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 BR14YZZ

UNSPSC 85877228 Fluoroscopy of cervical facet joint(s) using other contrast is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity bears little relation to its nominal scope. The three most recent opportunities posted under this code — a diagnostic imaging PACS system implementation, single-source ultrasound equipment procurement, and on-call phlebotomy services — do not involve fluoroscopy of cervical facet joints or spine imaging diagnostics. The mismatch between the code's specific clinical procedure name and the actual work being solicited suggests either a tagging error in the underlying procurement database or use of this code as a catch-all placeholder for imaging or diagnostic laboratory services broadly. State and local health systems and public safety agencies are the issuing bodies represented in the recent activity.

The geographic spread includes California, Florida, and New Mexico based on recent postings. San Mateo Medical Center (California) posted an RFP for a diagnostic imaging PACS system with proposals due August 7, 2026, seeking enterprise-grade implementation with EPIC integration, migration from legacy systems, and support for approximately 65,000 annual radiology studies plus cardiology and mammography imaging. Collier County, Florida issued a notice of intent to single-source ultrasound equipment (KOSMOS platform with TORSO-ONE USB probe) from EchoNous, Inc., running through March 25, 2028. The Albuquerque Police Department (New Mexico) posted an RFB for on-call phlebotomy technician services to support blood draws across Bernalillo County with 24/7 coverage and an anticipated 300 annual service calls, due February 25, 2026. The code shows limited recent activity aligned with its stated scope; vendors evaluating pursuit should verify code assignment against actual procurement need rather than assume the code name reflects work content.
