UNSPSC 85504743: Insertion of intraluminal device into left brachial artery, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of intraluminal device into left brachial 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 03H83DZ

UNSPSC 85504743 Insertion of intraluminal device into left brachial artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a specific cardiovascular surgical procedure—does not align with the work actually being solicited by state and local bodies under this classification. Recent opportunities tagged with this code involve occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these solicitations directly procure intraluminal device insertion services or related supplies.

The geographic spread of the opportunities includes Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas, with issuing bodies ranging from state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation) to counties (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County) and cities (Phoenix, Long Beach). The disconnect between the code's clinical-procedure name and the administrative, staffing, and benefit-management services actually being bought suggests either a data-quality issue in how opportunities were tagged or a persistent mismatch between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how these jurisdictions classify healthcare procurement. Firms pursuing medical device, surgical supply, or clinical-procedure-related state and local business should verify the accuracy of code assignments before investing in pursuit strategy under this classification.
