About UNSPSC 85503321

UNSPSC 85503321 Occlusion of left thyroid artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local opportunities. The code's nominal scope is a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged to this code cover occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, Centers of Excellence carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve thyroid artery occlusion or percutaneous endoscopic procedures. The mismatch indicates either a classification error in the opportunities or a misalignment between the code definition and current procurement tagging practice. No recent state and local solicitations under this code involve the procedural service the code nominally describes.

Recent activity under this code spans state health systems, county governments, and municipal retirement offices across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, though the opportunities are unrelated to the code's stated scope. The Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFP for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services (responses due October 16, 2026); the County of Santa Clara Health System posted an RFQ for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026); and Collier County issued an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services (due April 9, 2026). Given the fundamental mismatch between the code definition and the actual procurement activity, this code appears to warrant reclassification or correction at the issuing-body level rather than pursuit under its current tagging.
