UNSPSC 85502656: Insertion of intraluminal device into right temporal artery, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of intraluminal device into right temporal artery, 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 03HS0DZ

UNSPSC 85502656 Insertion of intraluminal device into right temporal artery, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal title describes a surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under it bear no relation to that scope. The opportunities instead cover healthcare administration and delivery services—inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support for peer workers, and fire department medical direction—none of which involve vascular or surgical interventions. The code appears to have been applied incorrectly to these procurements, and no relevant recent state and local activity exists under the code's stated scope.

The four opportunities shown involve counties and a municipal fire department in Florida, Georgia, and California, spanning inmate healthcare contracting, county employee health plan administration, virtual care platform services, behavioral health peer support, and EMS medical oversight. No repeat buyers appear in the recent block, and the issuing bodies represent distinct program lines rather than a coherent commodity family. The mismatch between the code's clinical descriptor and the procurements tagged to it suggests either a data error in the UNSPSC assignment or a fundamental misalignment in how this code is being applied by state and local procurement offices. Business development professionals evaluating this code should verify the correct UNSPSC classification before committing resources to pursue opportunities within the space described by the current code label.
