UNSPSC 85502733: Dilation of right thyroid artery with drug-eluting intraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of right thyroid artery with drug-eluting 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 037U04Z

UNSPSC 85502733 Dilation of right thyroid artery with drug-eluting intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that carries a medical-procedure classification but does not reflect what state and local governments are actually buying. Recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show no procurement of thyroid intervention devices or related supplies. Instead, the code appears in active solicitations for independent medical evaluation services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, specialty surgical networks, temporary health professional staffing, and juvenile detention healthcare — none of which align with the code's nominal scope of a specific vascular intervention procedure. The mismatch between the code classification and actual procurement activity suggests either data-tagging error at the source or that this code is used as a catch-all for health services when more specific medical codes are unavailable in state and local procurement systems.

Activity spans multiple issuing bodies, including city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), county governments (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), and municipal utilities (City of Long Beach). The geographic spread covers Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 ($750,000 five-year maximum), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFQ for occupational medical surveillance due October 9, 2026, and Collier County's RFP for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services originally due April 9, 2026. None of these solicitations involve the procurement described by the UNSPSC code itself.
