This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of left internal mammary artery, 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 03L10ZZ

UNSPSC 85501670 Occlusion of left internal mammary artery, open approach is a Commodity code that does not correspond to the work state and local governments are actually soliciting. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, specialty healthcare for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve left internal mammary artery occlusion or surgical intervention at that anatomical site. The issuing bodies include county health systems, county human resources and procurement offices, city retirement boards, state transportation departments, and county juvenile probation departments. The mismatch between the code's surgical procedure nomenclature and the actual scope of procured services indicates either a classification error in the source data or a systemic tagging problem; the code does not reflect genuine demand for the specific surgical procedure it nominates.

The geographic spread spans California (Santa Clara County, City of Long Beach), Arizona (City of Phoenix), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County). Recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services with a response date of October 16, 2026 and a five-year maximum contract value of $750,000; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026; the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out program management due October 7, 2026; and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services. The absence of a coherent procurement pattern around the stated UNSPSC commodity makes this code unreliable for business development targeting under its nominal scope.
