UNSPSC 85503119: Dilation of right external carotid artery, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of right external 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 037M3ZZ

UNSPSC 85503119 Dilation of right external carotid artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual scope of work being solicited under it in recent state and local opportunities. The recent postings tagged to this code involve occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, and independent medical evaluations for pension and disability determinations—none of which involve vascular procedures or interventional radiology. The code designation appears to be a data-entry or taxonomy-matching error rather than a reflection of genuine procurement activity in this medical-procedure domain.

The source shows no recent state and local contract opportunities for the carotid dilation procedure itself. Activity across the six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington and involves diverse issuing bodies including city retirement offices, county health systems, and state transportation departments, but none solicits the specific clinical service named in the code. Without evidence that state and local governments are currently purchasing this procedure through public contracting, pursuit under this code designation is not warranted.
