UNSPSC 85502924: Restriction of left common carotid artery, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of left common carotid artery, percutaneous 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 03VJ3ZZ

UNSPSC 85502924 Restriction of left common carotid artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the medical services and healthcare administration work actually being solicited by state and local governments under this tag. The recent opportunities posted to this code describe occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out networks, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the clinical procedure named in the code. The mismatch indicates a tagging or classification error in the state and local procurement system rather than a meaningful code for cardiovascular intervention procurement.

Activity under this code shows little decision-relevant purchasing pattern. The issuing bodies span county health systems, city pension boards, state transportation agencies, and county commissioners across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, but the underlying solicitations are for healthcare administration, staffing, and managed care services, not medical devices or procedures. Without a coherent commodity focus grounded in the code's stated scope, the code presents no reliable basis for business development targeting of state and local buyers seeking cardiovascular interventions or related supplies.
