UNSPSC 85504178: Dilation of right ulnar artery with drug-eluting intraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of right ulnar artery with drug-eluting 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 037904Z

UNSPSC 85504178 Dilation of right ulnar artery with drug-eluting intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that does not map to meaningful recent state and local procurement activity. The nominal scope — a highly specific invasive vascular procedure involving an intraluminal device — does not align with the six recent state and local opportunities posted under this code, which instead solicit independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. The code appears to have been misapplied by issuing bodies to general medical service procurements rather than procedures involving ulnar artery dilation with drug-eluting devices, indicating either a classification error in the source data or systematic misuse of the code by state and local procurement offices.

No state and local opportunities in the source reflect procurement of the specific medical device, procedure, or related clinical services that the code nominally describes. Vendors in interventional cardiology, vascular surgery, or medical device supply should treat this code as inactive for state and local business development purposes and monitor higher-level family or segment codes for relevant healthcare procurement activity instead.
