UNSPSC 85501516: Extirpation of matter from right internal carotid artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right internal carotid artery, 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 03CK4ZZ

UNSPSC 85501516 Extirpation of matter from right internal carotid artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its clinical procedure nomenclature. The code title references a specific vascular surgical intervention, yet the recent state and local solicitations tagged to this code do not involve procurement of that procedure or related interventional services. Instead, the opportunities address occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit carve-out programs — none of which corresponds to the code's stated scope.

The source identifies six recent opportunities posted between July and September 2026 across multiple issuing bodies: the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance for ferries personnel, due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical record summary and independent medical evaluation services, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach (surgical procedure carve-out benefit program for health plan members, due October 7, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty hospital services for detained youth, due September 25, 2026), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management services, due April 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing pool across ancillary clinical categories, due October 7, 2026). The misalignment between the code's vascular-surgery nomenclature and the actual procurement scope of these opportunities suggests either inconsistent code assignment by issuing bodies or that this Commodity code does not accurately reflect current state and local purchasing patterns in medical and health services.
