This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of left internal mammary artery with extraluminal 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 03L10CZ

UNSPSC 85501672 Occlusion of left internal mammary artery with extraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code describing a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code show no alignment with the nominal scope — the posted solicitations span independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing. These opportunities involve health benefit administration, medical staffing coordination, and clinical operations support, not the procedure named in the code. The mix of issuing bodies includes municipal retirement boards (City of Phoenix), city employee benefits offices (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice authorities (Harris County), county human resources and benefits consortiums (Collier County, County of Santa Clara), reflecting a fragmented buyer base across different public-sector functions rather than procurement by a single category of jurisdiction.

The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no clear concentration in any single state or region. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years and a response deadline of October 16, 2026; the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations with a two-year initial term and pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System RFSQ (RFSQHHSFY270052) for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories, a non-exclusive multiple-award vehicle with proposals due October 7, 2026. The code shows little substantive recent activity aligned with its stated procedural definition; the mismatch between the code name and the actual work being solicited suggests either miscoding by the issuing bodies or that the code designation does not reflect current procurement practice under this taxonomy.
