UNSPSC 85503022: Occlusion of right external carotid artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of right external 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 03LM3CZ

UNSPSC 85503022 Occlusion of right external carotid artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code with a nominal scope that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity indexed under it. The recent opportunities show no solicitations for medical devices or vascular procedures matching the code's clinical name. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code span occupational health surveillance, pension board disability evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical care networks for municipal employees, and youth detention health services—none of which involve extraluminal carotid artery occlusion devices or percutaneous vascular procedures. The mismatch suggests either a data classification error or a vendor-system artifact rather than genuine procurement activity under the intended commodity scope.

The issuing bodies across the six recent opportunities include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), with no standout repeat buyers across the block. Geographic spread spans Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026 (14 ferry terminal locations statewide); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP for disability benefit determinations due October 16, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award temporary health professional staffing qualification solicitation due October 7, 2026. Because the code's nominal scope—a vascular occlusion procedure—bears no relation to any of these opportunities, this code shows little relevant procurement activity for firms pursuing state and local contracts in medical devices, clinical services, or health procurement.
