UNSPSC 85501259: Occlusion of left internal carotid artery, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of left internal carotid artery, 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 03LL3ZZ

UNSPSC 85501259 Occlusion of left internal carotid artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities present in the source material. The code nominally describes a specific medical procedure — the percutaneous occlusion of the left internal carotid artery — yet none of the six recent opportunities solicit that procedure directly or as a primary deliverable. Instead, the opportunities target broader health plan administration, occupational medical surveillance, temporary staffing, pharmacy benefit management, medical record summary and disability evaluation services, and surgical benefit carve-out programs. The code designation and the actual work being bought show a fundamental mismatch, suggesting either miscategorization in source systems or an absence of relevant procurement activity under this code at the state and local level.

The recent opportunities span diverse issuing bodies including city retirement offices, municipal human resources departments, state transportation agencies, county juvenile probation departments, county boards of commissioners, and county health systems across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. No concentrated pattern of activity supports a stable procurement stream under this code. The source provides no evidence of state or local governments actively soliciting medical device procurement, surgical procedure services, or clinical equipment aligned with the code's nominal scope. Business development professionals evaluating this code should treat it as currently inactive in the state and local market and redirect focus to codes capturing the health plan administration, medical staffing, and clinical services work that jurisdictions are actually buying today.
