UNSPSC 85502747: Dilation of right external carotid artery with intraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of right external carotid artery with 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 037M0DZ

UNSPSC 85502747 Dilation of right external carotid artery with intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the scope of work actually being solicited by state and local governments under this code. Recent state and local contract opportunities tagged with this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical care center-of-excellence networks, and emergency medical services for youth in detention—none of which involves vascular intervention or carotid artery procedures. The mismatch between the code's clinical procedure name and the procurement activity suggests a classification error in the source data rather than active procurement of this specific procedural service.

The recent opportunities show no consistent pattern of issuing bodies, geographic spread, or work scope that aligns with the code's nominal title. The Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational health surveillance), City of Phoenix Retirement Office (pension disability evaluation), City of Long Beach (surgical care networks), Collier County (pharmacy benefits), County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary staffing), and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (youth detention medical services) represent different sectors and service lines with no common thread to vascular surgery. Without recent state and local solicitations that actually seek carotid artery dilation services or related vascular interventions, this code shows no relevant procurement activity for business development purposes.
