UNSPSC 85502156: Occlusion of left internal mammary artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of left internal mammary artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous 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 03L13DZ

UNSPSC 85502156 Occlusion of left internal mammary artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities sourced under this code. The source shows no procurement activity for the specific cardiac intervention procedure the code nominally describes. Instead, the opportunities tagged under this code reflect general health services contracting — medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, occupational medical surveillance, and surgery benefit carve-outs — none of which involve percutaneous coronary interventions or device-based cardiology procedures. The mismatch suggests either a data classification error in the state and local procurement source or a use of the code as a catch-all placeholder for health services without meaningful specificity to the underlying procedure.

Recent opportunities show issuing bodies spanning county health systems, municipal retirement boards, state transportation agencies, and county juvenile justice systems across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations due October 16, 2026, with a $750,000 five-year contract ceiling; the Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFQ for occupational medical surveillance services covering 14 ferry terminal and vessel locations, due October 9, 2026; the County of Santa Clara Health System posted an RFQ to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories, due October 7, 2026; and Collier County posted an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services managing approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members, due April 9, 2026 (with a historical annual pharmacy spend of approximately $8.7 million). Given the disconnect between the code's stated scope and the actual opportunities presented, this code warrants close attention to the root cause before committing resources to pursuit.
