UNSPSC 85877419: Fluoroscopy of left ureter using low osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to fluoroscopy of left ureter 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 BT171ZZ

UNSPSC 85877419 Fluoroscopy of left ureter using low osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that in practice captures little recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal diagnostic imaging scope. The three recent opportunities tagged to this code span diagnostic imaging systems architecture, portable ultrasound equipment procurement, and phlebotomy services — none of which represent fluoroscopy procedures or the clinical service line the code name describes. The mismatch suggests either misclassification at the issuing-body level or that state and local procurement systems are routing imaging-adjacent contracts to this code without precision alignment. State and local buyers in the recent record include a county hospital system (San Mateo Medical Center in California), a county healthcare procurement division (Collier County, Florida), and a municipal law enforcement agency (Albuquerque Police Department, New Mexico).

The geographic spread covers California, Florida, and New Mexico, with no concentration evident across the three opportunities. Recent solicitations include San Mateo County's RFP for enterprise-grade Diagnostic Imaging PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) implementation with responses due August 7, 2026; Collier County's Notice of Intent to single-source KOSMOS platform ultrasound equipment from EchoNous, Inc. with a deadline of March 26, 2026 (now closed); and Albuquerque Police Department's RFB for on-call phlebotomy technician services with bids due February 25, 2026 (now closed). The PACS solicitation represents the largest and most typical diagnostic imaging infrastructure play, supporting 65,000 annual radiology studies with requirements for 99.9% uptime, EPIC EHR integration, and nine to twelve months to implementation. Absent a clear alignment between code definition and actual procurement activity, this code warrants close watch for reclassification or correction rather than immediate pursuit.
