UNSPSC 85502664: Insertion of intraluminal device into left common carotid artery, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of intraluminal device into left common carotid 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 03HJ0DZ

UNSPSC 85502664 Insertion of intraluminal device into left common carotid artery, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal medical device scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code reflect state and local procurement of occupational health surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, surgical benefit administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in detention—none of which involve insertion of intraluminal devices into carotid arteries. The mismatch suggests this code either captures a narrow procedure-specific taxonomy that state and local procurement offices rarely use or that recent opportunites were incorrectly tagged.

The geographic spread of the six recent opportunities spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), indicating the code has received sporadic attention across multiple regions without meaningful geographic concentration. Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), which sought physician-supervised baseline and periodic examinations across 14 locations; the City of Phoenix independent medical evaluation services RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), which sought disability benefit medical record review and examination coordination with a five-year term capped at $750,000; and the County of Santa Clara Health System temporary health professional staffing qualification vehicle (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026), which established a multi-category vendor pool for ancillary clinical services without guaranteed volume. The code's misalignment with actual state and local medical procurement suggests it merits review before pursuit.
