UNSPSC 85502207: Insertion of intraluminal device into left internal mammary artery, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of intraluminal device into left internal mammary artery, 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 03H13DZ

UNSPSC 85502207 Insertion of intraluminal device into left internal mammary artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code's nominal scope describes a specific percutaneous cardiac intervention procedure, but the state and local contract opportunities tagged under it reflect medical services procurement entirely unrelated to device insertion — including pension disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, youth detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. The mismatch between the code's technical procedure name and the actual work being solicited suggests either miscoding at the issuing body level or a fundamental disconnect between UNSPSC taxonomy and how some jurisdictions classify healthcare services contracts.

Activity under this code is geographically dispersed across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no pattern indicating concentration in any single state or jurisdiction type. Recent solicitations span city pension boards (Phoenix), municipal employee benefits (Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara County), county juvenile justice (Harris County), and county employee health programs (Collier County). Given that six recent opportunities carry no meaningful relationship to intraluminal device insertion and the code's abstract title does not reflect what any of these jurisdictions are actually buying, business development professionals should verify coding accuracy with the issuing body before investing pursuit effort — the code appears to function as a catch-all category for healthcare-adjacent services rather than a reliable signal for cardiac device procurement.
