UNSPSC 85877434: Fluoroscopy of bilateral kidneys using other contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to fluoroscopy of bilateral kidneys 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 BT13YZZ

UNSPSC 85877434 Fluoroscopy of bilateral kidneys using other contrast is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific diagnostic imaging procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity shows little alignment with this narrow clinical definition. The three recent opportunities posted under this code span diagnostic imaging infrastructure (a PACS system implementation), ultrasound equipment procurement, and phlebotomy services — none of which constitute fluoroscopy procedures. San Mateo Medical Center solicited a full diagnostic imaging PACS platform supporting radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging with EPIC integration; Collier County, Florida procured ultrasound equipment and software licensing; and the Albuquerque Police Department requested on-call blood draw services. The code appears to have been applied inconsistently across these opportunities, suggesting either tagging error or a misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how state and local procurement offices actually classify imaging and laboratory services.

The issuing bodies represent a mix of county health systems and city police and public safety departments. San Mateo County Medical Center and Collier County Health Systems show active capital procurement for diagnostic imaging; the Albuquerque Police Department approached the code for clinical support services. Recent activity concentrates in California and Florida, with one opportunity in New Mexico. Representative solicitations include San Mateo Medical Center's RFP for Diagnostic Imaging PACS (due August 7, 2026) with enterprise-grade implementation, EPIC integration, and 99.9% uptime requirements; Collier County's single-source notice for EchoNous ultrasound equipment (posted April 1, 2026); and Albuquerque Police Department's RFB for on-call phlebotomy services (due February 25, 2026). The code shows limited recent activity and poor categorical clarity — vendors pursuing this UNSPSC should verify specific opportunity alignment before investing in proposals, as the code's nominal scope does not reliably predict the work actually being purchased.
