UNSPSC 85503739: Dilation of upper artery, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of upper 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 037Y3ZZ

UNSPSC 85503739 Dilation of upper artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that bears no meaningful alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific cardiovascular interventional procedure, yet the six recent opportunities posted under this code across state and local jurisdictions span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, surgical carve-out benefits, and emergency services for detained youth. These solicitations concern medical administration, benefit program design, provider networks, and workforce services—not the procedural intervention the code name denotes. The mismatch suggests either systematic coding error in the source dataset or a structural divergence between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how some state and local procurement offices tag health services contracts.

The geographic spread of recent activity includes Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), and Texas (Harris County), with issuing bodies encompassing city retirement offices, county health systems and probation departments, and state transportation agencies. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations (response due October 16, 2026, maximum contract value $750,000 over five years); the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry system employees across 14 locations (response due October 9, 2026, pre-bid conference August 31, 2026); Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 7,200 members with historical annual pharmacy spending near $8.7 million (response due April 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (response due October 7, 2026). This code shows no utility for business development professionals targeting medical device, implant, or interventional procedure supply lines.
