UNSPSC 85501481: Occlusion of right internal carotid artery with bioactive intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of right internal carotid artery with bioactive intraluminal 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 03LK4BZ

UNSPSC 85501481 Occlusion of right internal carotid artery with bioactive intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local government procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific medical device and interventional procedure, yet the recent solicitations tagged under it encompass occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-outs, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve vascular intervention devices or the clinical procedure named in the code. The mismatch indicates that issuing bodies are not using this code to procure the narrowly defined intervention it describes.

Recent activity across the tagged opportunities spans state departments, county governments, and municipal health systems rather than hospital-based interventional services. The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSF) solicited occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations with an RFQ due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix sought disability medical evaluation services for pension boards with an RFP due October 16, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System opened a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories with proposals due October 7, 2026. Collier County issued an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members, and the City of Long Beach sought a surgical procedure carve-out benefit program through Centers of Excellence for its Anthem PPO plan. Harris County Juvenile Probation Department posted an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth. The code shows little relevant recent activity; vendors pursuing state and local opportunities under this classification should verify that issuing bodies intend to procure the intervention this code actually names rather than the administrative and ancillary clinical services the recent postings reflect.
