UNSPSC 85505111: Insertion of intraluminal device into right ulnar artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of intraluminal device into right ulnar artery, 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 03H94DZ

UNSPSC 85505111 Insertion of intraluminal device into right ulnar artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The UNSPSC code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code—independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, surgical benefit carve-out programs, youth detention healthcare services, and temporary health professional staffing—do not align with procurement of intraluminal vascular devices or related surgical supplies. The mismatch suggests either a code classification error in the state and local procurement system or that this code is used inconsistently across jurisdictions to tag health-system service contracts rather than medical devices themselves.

The issuing bodies posting under this code span county health systems, municipal retirement offices, state transportation departments, and county juvenile justice agencies across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. No vendor should rely on this code to identify procurement opportunities for intraluminal devices or endovascular supplies. Firms targeting state and local medical-device or surgical-supply procurement should verify code assignments against recent RFPs and IFBs rather than relying on the nominal UNSPSC definition, and should focus on health-system material-management and supply-chain notices where device-specific categories are properly classified.
