UNSPSC 85504702: Occlusion of left hand artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of left hand artery with intraluminal device, 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 03LF3DZ

UNSPSC 85504702, Occlusion of left hand artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under this tag. The recent opportunities posted against this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, specialty surgical carve-out networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency inpatient care for detained youth — none of which align with interventional cardiology procedures or vascular access occlusion. The code appears to be a data classification error or a misapplication by the posting jurisdictions; the opportunities are grounded in employee health benefits administration, occupational health programs, and public health services rather than the specific interventional medical device procedure the code nominally describes.

The issuing bodies posting against this code include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and county health systems. A representative recent opportunity is the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825), due October 9, 2026, seeking baseline and periodic occupational health examinations by board-certified occupational physicians at 14 ferry system locations statewide. Another is the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP (RTMRFP26001), due October 16, 2026, seeking disability benefit medical record summaries and examination scheduling for approximately 75 annual public safety pension applications, with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years. Activity is concentrated in the Pacific Northwest and Southwest, with limited recent postings. The underlying mismatch between the code definition and the work actually being procured suggests that state and local procurement offices are applying this clinical procedure code to a range of occupational health, benefits administration, and clinical staffing services where it does not belong — a signal to verify scope alignment directly with issuing bodies rather than relying on code tags.
