UNSPSC 85503211: Restriction of right temporal artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of right temporal artery with intraluminal device, 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 03VS4DZ

UNSPSC 85503211 Restriction of right temporal artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure involving vascular intervention, but the recent solicitations tagged under it—including occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth—bear no relationship to the narrow procedural scope of the code itself. These opportunities span occupational health screening, healthcare administration, staffing augmentation, and benefits management rather than the performance of a particular arterial restriction procedure.

The geographic spread of unrelated opportunities includes Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation ferries medical surveillance), Arizona (City of Phoenix retirement medical evaluations), Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefits), California (Santa Clara County health professional staffing and City of Long Beach surgical benefits), and Texas (Harris County youth detention medical services). Given the mismatch between the code's clinical procedure focus and the actual purchasing activity appearing under it in state and local procurement systems, this code does not represent a meaningful market signal for vendors pursuing state and local opportunities. Buyers seeking to respond to these opportunities should disregard the UNSPSC tag and evaluate each solicitation on its functional scope—medical evaluations, benefits administration, staffing solutions, or healthcare services delivery—rather than on code alignment.
