UNSPSC 85501523: Drainage of left vertebral artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of left vertebral 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 039Q4ZZ

UNSPSC 85501523 Drainage of left vertebral artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful activity aligned with its nominal clinical scope in recent state and local procurement. The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 and tagged under this code—covering independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, youth detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—represent administrative and occupational health services procurement, not procedural or interventional vascular surgery. The mismatch suggests either a data-quality issue in how opportunities were classified or a systematic misalignment between the code's medical procedure name and the kinds of services state and local jurisdictions actually source under it.

The geographic spread of the six opportunities spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), with issuing bodies including city retirement offices, county human resources and health departments, state transportation agencies, and regional health systems. Without opportunities that reflect the code's stated clinical focus, there is no actionable signal for firms pursuing interventional vascular or procedural work under this UNSPSC classification at the state and local level at this time.
