UNSPSC 85501611: Restriction of left internal mammary artery with intraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of left internal mammary artery with intraluminal device, open 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 03V10DZ

UNSPSC 85501611 Restriction of left internal mammary artery with intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal title describes a surgical procedure classification, but recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code show no alignment with that scope. The recent opportunities posted under this code are instead acquiring occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out benefits for employee health plans, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for youth in custody — none of which involve the restriction of an internal mammary artery or any surgical procedure matching the code's name. The code exhibits a severe scope-mismatch problem: the issuing bodies (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, and County of Santa Clara Health System) are soliciting health plan administration, occupational health services, and medical staffing, not cardiovascular surgical procedures.

The recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida with no geographic concentration. Because the posted solicitations are plainly unrelated to the code's nominal procedure-classification scope, the code shows little relevant recent activity for business development purposes. Firms pursuing cardiovascular or occupational surgical procedure supply or services should verify their UNSPSC coding with issuing bodies before targeting opportunities under this code, as the current tagging appears to reflect a data-entry or taxonomy-assignment error rather than actual procurement demand for the service named.
