UNSPSC 85501257 Occlusion of right vertebral artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose nominal taxonomy designation does not align with the state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational health surveillance, pension disability medical evaluations, Centers of Excellence surgery benefits, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, emergency youth detention medicine, and related municipal health services — none of which involve vertebral artery occlusion procedures or interventional cardiology devices. The code shows little relevant recent activity within its stated clinical scope.

The issuing bodies posting under this code are county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County), municipal pension boards (City of Phoenix), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), and county governments (Collier County, Long Beach). Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, maximum $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance services RFP (due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing vehicle (due October 7, 2026). Geographic activity spans Arizona, Washington, California, and Florida, with no pattern concentrated in a single region. The mismatch between the code's clinical descriptor and the work actually being solicited suggests either miscoding at source or a systematic tagging artifact; prospectors should verify code alignment before pursuing opportunities flagged under this taxonomy entry.
