UNSPSC 85504076: Occlusion of left axillary artery with intraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of left axillary artery with intraluminal device, open 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 03L60DZ

UNSPSC 85504076 Occlusion of left axillary artery with intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no alignment with state and local procurement activity; the recent opportunities posted under this code are unrelated to the medical device or surgical procedure the code nominally describes. The solicitations drawn from the source consist of independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and inpatient care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve axillary artery occlusion devices or the specific interventional procedure named in the code.

State and local buyers posting these opportunities — including the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System — appear to have applied this code without specificity to broader health services procurement. The code assignment does not reflect the actual work being solicited. Firms pursuing state and local health services contracts under this code should verify code assignment during pre-bid inquiry; the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual posting patterns suggests either a data classification error or a misapplication of medical device taxonomy to administrative and staffing services that do not involve the device or procedure described.
