UNSPSC 85501101: Insertion of intraluminal device into left vertebral artery, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of intraluminal device into left vertebral artery, open approach. This surgical 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 03HQ0DZ

UNSPSC 85501101 Insertion of intraluminal device into left vertebral artery, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal taxonomy designation does not align with the state and local procurement activity recorded under it. The recent opportunities tagged to this code include inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for peer workers in behavioral health, and fire department medical director services — none of which involve insertion of intraluminal devices into vertebral arteries or any surgical procedure. The code shows little relevant recent activity and appears to reflect a data-classification mismatch rather than substantive demand for the procedure the code name describes.

State and local issuing bodies posting opportunities under this code include county corrections departments, county human resources and health-benefits operations, county boards of commissioners, county behavioral health agencies, and municipal fire departments across Florida, Georgia, and California. No standout repeat buyers appear in the recent record. Geographic spread encompasses Georgia (Muscogee County), Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), and California (San Mateo County and Santa Monica). Representative recent opportunities include Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP 26-0008 for inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (due May 15, 2026), Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees and 4,800 covered members (due April 9, 2026), and Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services for approximately 2,300 county members (due April 16, 2026). Vendor interest in pursuing this code should treat the recent opportunities as misclassified and assess whether the healthcare-services work being solicited aligns with current service lines; the code itself offers limited signal.
