This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of left thyroid artery, percutaneous endoscopic 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 03VV4ZZ

UNSPSC 85503201 Restriction of left thyroid artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with state and local government procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure and is used in clinical healthcare billing and coding systems, not in the procurement taxonomy that state and local governments apply to the goods and services they buy. The recent opportunities posted under this code—including inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary care, peer support services, and emergency medical director contracts—represent operational healthcare services and administrative support, not the procedural intervention the code nominally identifies.

State and local governments show no relevant recent activity under this code. The mismatch between the code's clinical procedure scope and the administrative and operational healthcare services actually being solicited suggests either a cataloging error in the underlying opportunity data or that this code is not in active use for state and local procurement. No further pursuit is recommended without clarification from the issuing bodies on why these opportunities were tagged under this code.
