UNSPSC 85877237: Fluoroscopy of cervical disc(s) using low osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to fluoroscopy of cervical disc(s) 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 BR111ZZ

UNSPSC 85877237 Fluoroscopy of cervical disc(s) using low osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and the state and local opportunities recently tagged under it. The three most recent solicitations — a diagnostic imaging PACS system from San Mateo Medical Center, an ultrasound equipment single-source procurement from Collier County, Florida, and on-call phlebotomy services from the Albuquerque Police Department — do not involve fluoroscopy of cervical discs or the use of low osmolar contrast agents. The San Mateo and Collier County procurements address imaging infrastructure and equipment (PACS software migration and ultrasound platforms), while the Albuquerque RFB covers phlebotomy services entirely unrelated to diagnostic imaging. This code shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity aligned to its stated purpose.

The issuing bodies span county health systems (San Mateo County), county procurement offices (Collier County), and municipal departments (Albuquerque Police Department), but the diversity of the three solicitations and their disconnection from the code's nominal scope limit meaningful characterization of who buys under this code or where activity concentrates. The geographic spread captures California, Florida, and New Mexico, yet geographic distribution is not actionable when the underlying opportunities are not substantively related to fluoroscopy services. State and local procurement offices may be misapplying this code or may use it as a catch-all for diagnostic imaging and clinical laboratory services more broadly, but the source does not support pursuit under this specific Commodity code.
