This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of left ulnar artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic 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 03LA4CZ

UNSPSC 85505065 Occlusion of left ulnar artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect meaningful recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope — a specific interventional vascular procedure — bears no substantive relationship to the opportunities currently posted under it in state and local markets.

The recent opportunities tagged to this code span administrative health services, employee benefit programs, and occupational medicine, none of which involve the specialized vascular intervention the code describes. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office is soliciting independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations under Arizona's Public Safety Personnel Retirement System; the City of Long Beach is requesting surgical benefit carve-out program administration for its Anthem PPO plan; the Washington State Department of Transportation is procuring occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth; and the County of Santa Clara Health System is establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing. Collier County's pharmacy benefit management procurement and Santa Clara's temporary health professional staffing solicitation similarly address administrative or workforce support, not clinical procedure delivery. The geographic distribution spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no concentration in any single jurisdiction or state. This code shows no active, relevant procurement pipeline for vendors pursuing state and local government work in interventional vascular services; mismatch between the code taxonomy and actual buying activity suggests the code is either misapplied in these postings or sees negligible actual use in the state and local procurement market.
