UNSPSC 85501739: Dilation of innominate artery with drug-eluting intraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of innominate artery with drug-eluting 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 037204Z

UNSPSC 85501739 Dilation of innominate artery with drug-eluting intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged to this code show no connection to cardiovascular interventional procedures; instead, they span occupational health surveillance, disability pension medical evaluations, surgical benefit network management, pharmacy benefit administration, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention healthcare services. The code appears to be a data classification error or a systematic mislabeling issue across multiple jurisdictions rather than a reflection of genuine procurement intent under the nominal code definition.

No actionable business development signal exists under this code based on current state and local opportunities. State and local procurement professionals should verify the UNSPSC code assignment with issuing bodies before pursuing work, as the mismatch between the code's clinical scope and the actual services being bought suggests upstream data-quality problems that may persist across future solicitations. The opportunities themselves—occupational medical surveillance through Washington State Ferries, disability medical evaluations for the City of Phoenix, surgical center-of-excellence networks for the City of Long Beach, pharmacy benefit management for Collier County, temporary health staffing for Santa Clara County Health System, and specialty medical services for Harris County Juvenile Probation—are legitimate healthcare-sector procurements, but they should be tracked under their respective service codes, not under a procedure code for arterial dilation.
