UNSPSC 85501303: Insertion of intraluminal device into right vertebral artery, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of intraluminal device into right vertebral 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 03HP3DZ

UNSPSC 85501303 Insertion of intraluminal device into right vertebral artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code nominally describes a specific interventional vascular procedure, yet the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it do not align with that scope. The six posted solicitations cover disability medical record review and independent medical evaluations (Phoenix), surgical Center of Excellence networks (Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Ferries), emergency and specialty medical care for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (Santa Clara County Health System). None of these solicitations procure intraluminal vascular devices or the placement procedure itself. The mismatch suggests either a coding error in the state and local system or a broad misclassification of medical procurement under an overly specific clinical-procedure code.

The issuing bodies across these opportunities span county human resources departments, county health systems, state transportation agencies, and county juvenile justice authorities rather than hospitals, health systems, or procurement offices focused on medical devices or interventional supplies. The geographic spread includes Arizona, California (two jurisdictions), Texas, Florida, and Washington, with no clear concentration. Given the systematic misalignment between the code definition and the actual work being solicited, this code does not represent a meaningful procurement opportunity for vendors supplying intraluminal vascular devices or related interventional equipment to state and local buyers.
