UNSPSC 85501668 (Occlusion of innominate artery with intraluminal device, open approach), a Commodity code, shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six opportunities in the most-recent block — including independent medical evaluation services for disability pension applications (City of Phoenix), surgical center-of-excellence carve-out benefits (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Department of Transportation), youth detention emergency medical services (Harris County), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing qualification pools (County of Santa Clara) — are health plan administration, occupational health screening, and clinical staffing services. None involve the procurement of vascular surgical devices or intraluminal arterial intervention supplies that the code's title describes. The code appears to be a clinical procedure taxonomy entry misapplied in state and local procurement records; vendors in medical device sales, vascular supplies, or interventional cardiology equipment should not pursue business under this code based on current activity.
