UNSPSC 85504114: Insertion of infusion device into left brachial artery, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of infusion device into left brachial artery, 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 03H803Z

UNSPSC 85504114 Insertion of infusion device into left brachial artery, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six most recent opportunities tagged to this code involve independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations (City of Phoenix), surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance for ferry system workers (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (County of Santa Clara Health System). None of these solicitations solicit insertion of infusion devices into the brachial artery or any vascular access procedure; the code's nominal scope—a specific surgical intervention—does not match the work actually being bought under it in state and local markets.

The mismatch suggests either a data-classification error at the source or that this code is not actively used by state and local procurement offices for current buying activity. Vendors pursuing state and local contracts in medical device, vascular access, or interventional radiology should verify code accuracy with issuing bodies before assuming this Commodity code represents opportunity in those service lines.
