UNSPSC 85502926: Restriction of left common carotid artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of left common carotid artery with extraluminal device, 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 03VJ3CZ

UNSPSC 85502926 Restriction of left common carotid artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific interventional cardiology or vascular surgery procedure, yet the most recent opportunities tagged to it—independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, surgical benefit carve-outs, emergency medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing—bear no direct relationship to carotid artery restriction devices or procedures. The source records indicate issuing bodies have tagged these opportunities to the code, but the work being solicited does not fall within the code's stated scope of medical devices or procedural interventions for vascular conditions.

The recent opportunities span state agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), county jurisdictions (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), with issuing bodies including pension boards, health systems, and procurement divisions. Geographic activity includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. No evidence supports that this code is actively used for actual device or procedure procurement at the state and local level. A business development firm evaluating pursuit under this code should verify whether tagging misalignment reflects systematic miscoding or whether the code remains inactive for state and local procurement in the device or surgical procedure categories it nominally describes.
