This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of right internal carotid artery with extraluminal 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 03LK3CZ

UNSPSC 85501265 Occlusion of right internal carotid artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities in the source material. The code describes a specific surgical procedure for vascular intervention, yet the posted solicitations are recruiting services for independent medical evaluations, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs, and specialty medical services for detained youth — none of which involve carotid artery occlusion devices or the procurement of that specific medical implant or procedure. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests this code shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement.

The source provides no evidence that state and local purchasing offices are issuing RFPs, RFQs, IFBs, or ITBs to procure carotid artery occlusion devices or related procedural services under this code. A business development professional evaluating this code should verify whether the tagging is accurate and, if so, recognize that current state and local solicitation volume under this Commodity code does not support active pursuit at this time.
