UNSPSC 85503343: Occlusion of left common carotid artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of left common carotid 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 03LJ4DZ

UNSPSC 85503343, Occlusion of left common carotid artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code nominally designating a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code do not align with its clinical scope. Instead, the opportunities posted under this code address occupational health surveillance, medical record review for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for employee health plans, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve the carotid intervention the code describes. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, state transportation departments, county health systems, and county procurement divisions. The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no dominant region evident from the available postings.

The most recent opportunities show little relevance to the code's stated procedural scope. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office issued RFP RTMRFP26001 (due October 16, 2026) for independent medical evaluation services to support disability pension determinations for public safety personnel, with a maximum five-year contract value of $750,000. The Washington State Department of Transportation posted RFP RFP20260825 (due October 9, 2026) seeking occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations, requiring physician board certification in occupational medicine. The County of Santa Clara Health System solicited vendor qualifications for temporary ancillary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026) across 13 specialty categories, operated as a non-exclusive multiple-award pool. The code shows significant misalignment between its clinical designation and actual state and local procurement activity recorded under it.
