UNSPSC 85501216: Restriction of right internal carotid artery with bioactive intraluminal device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of right internal carotid artery with bioactive intraluminal device, percutaneous 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 03VK3BZ

UNSPSC 85501216, Restriction of right internal carotid artery with bioactive intraluminal device, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code nominally describing a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities posted against this code show little alignment with the code's clinical scope. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office sought independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach requested proposals for a surgical carve-out benefit program offering Centers of Excellence networks for orthopedic, cardiac, spine, and oncology procedures (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026); Washington State Department of Transportation's ferry division procured occupational medical surveillance services (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (RFI 071626BNM, due September 25, 2026); and Collier County sought Pharmacy Benefit Management services covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual spending around $8.7 million (RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026). None of these solicitations concern carotid artery restriction procedures or bioactive intraluminal devices. The issuing bodies include county human resources and benefits divisions, state transportation departments, county juvenile justice systems, and county health procurement offices—a mix of administrative health benefits purchasing and occupational health administration rather than surgical device procurement or clinical procedure sourcing.

This code shows minimal recent activity clearly matched to its stated commodity scope. The opportunities posted carry different UNSPSC classifications than the carotid artery procedure code suggests, indicating either systematic tagging mismatches or that the code itself sees very limited state and local procurement volume. Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Washington State, and Florida across the identified solicitations. Firms pursuing work under this code should verify the actual UNSPSC classification in active RFPs before committing resources, as the current posting pattern does not reflect the code's clinical focus.
