UNSPSC 85503008: Occlusion of left temporal artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of left temporal artery with intraluminal 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 03LT3DZ

UNSPSC 85503008 Occlusion of left temporal artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not match the work actually being solicited by state and local governments in the recent opportunities. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure involving vascular intervention—bears no relation to the health services, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit administration, medical record review, emergency healthcare delivery, and temporary clinical staffing that appear in the recent state and local contract notices tagged under this code. This code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its UNSPSC definition.

The opportunities themselves span diverse health-related services across different issuing bodies and geographies. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona) solicited independent medical evaluation services and disability medical record summary preparation (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach (California) requested proposals for surgical benefit carve-out and Centers of Excellence network management (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation sought occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas) issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (RFI 071626BNM, due September 25, 2026); Collier County (Florida) requested Pharmacy Benefit Management services with historical spending around $8.7 million annually (RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California) established a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing across multiple specialties (RFSQ RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, though the tagging of these varied health-service procurements under a single vascular-procedure code appears to reflect a classification error rather than a coherent commodity family.
