UNSPSC 85501468: Occlusion of left vertebral artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of left vertebral artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic 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 03LQ4CZ

UNSPSC 85501468 Occlusion of left vertebral artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code—including independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-out benefits, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth—do not align with the code's specific procedural scope, which describes a vascular intervention performed on a single anatomical target using a defined clinical approach. State and local governments do not solicit procurement of individual percutaneous endoscopic procedures through standard contract mechanisms; the code's presence in these opportunities appears to reflect cataloging inconsistency rather than actual purchasing intent under the code's nominal definition.

The mismatch between the code's procedural specificity and the general health services contracting in the recent records suggests either that the code was applied in error or that state and local procurement offices are using broad medical taxonomy codes as administrative catch-alls for health service categories without precision alignment. No representative opportunities grounded in the actual procedure named by the code are present in the source material.
