UNSPSC 85502645: Occlusion of left common carotid artery with bioactive intraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of left common carotid artery with bioactive 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 03LJ0BZ

UNSPSC 85502645 Occlusion of left common carotid artery with bioactive intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure for arterial intervention, but the recent opportunities tagged under it reflect general occupational health, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefits management, surgical care networks, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involves carotid artery occlusion or implantable intraluminal devices. The mismatch suggests either a miscoding error in the source data or a classification inconsistency in how state and local procurement systems are tagging these opportunities.

The recent opportunities show activity across Arizona (Phoenix Retirement Office disability medical evaluations), California (Long Beach surgical and specialty care carve-out programs, Santa Clara Health System temporary staffing), Washington (state ferry system occupational medical surveillance), Texas (Harris County youth detention medical services), and Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefit management). These solicitations span RFPs, RFQs, and RFIs issued by county retirement boards, municipal health systems, state transportation departments, and county human resources divisions. However, none involves implantable medical devices, carotid intervention, or the clinical scope the code nominally describes. The code shows minimal relevant recent activity for business development purposes targeting device sales or procedure-related services.
