UNSPSC 85504803: Dilation of left hand artery with drug-eluting intraluminal device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of left hand artery with drug-eluting 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 037F34Z

UNSPSC 85504803 Dilation of left hand artery with drug-eluting intraluminal device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that in practice does not align with state and local government procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific interventional cardiology procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged to it instead reflect health-plan administration, occupational medical surveillance, disability evaluation services, and temporary clinical staffing—none involving arterial dilation devices or percutaneous interventions. No opportunities in the source document reflect procurement of implantable medical devices, drug-eluting stents, or procedural equipment consistent with the code's medical nomenclature.

The mismatch between the code's clinical scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either a data-entry error in how these opportunities were tagged or a systematic misalignment in how this particular jurisdiction or platform codes health-services procurement. State and local buyers do procure health plan administration (as seen in Collier County's pharmacy benefit management RFP and Long Beach's surgical benefit carve-out), occupational health services (Washington State Ferries' medical surveillance), and temporary staffing (Santa Clara Health System's qualified vendor pool), but those services fall under health-plan and occupational-health administrative codes rather than procedure-specific device codes. The code shows no relevant recent activity for business development purposes in state and local procurement.
