UNSPSC 85501120: Excision of left internal carotid 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 03BL0ZZ

UNSPSC 85501120 Excision of left internal carotid artery, open approach is a Commodity code that does not describe work actually being solicited by state and local governments in the recent record. The code nominates a specific surgical procedure, but the six recent state and local opportunities tagged to it—spanning occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit evaluations, surgical carve-out networks, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth—do not involve carotid artery excision or any closely related surgical intervention. The mismatch between the code's specificity and the breadth of healthcare service categories appearing in tagged opportunities suggests either systematic misclassification in the procurement source database or use of the code as a placeholder within a broader healthcare services family. No state and local government procurement activity under this code's actual scope appears in the record.

The issuing bodies include municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), city human resources departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), county health systems (Collier County Board of County Commissioners, County of Santa Clara Health System), and multi-agency health consortia (Collier County Health Care Consortium). The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Until the source demonstrates procurement activity aligned with the code's actual surgical scope, pursuit under this code is not supported by current market signal.
