UNSPSC 85505163: Dilation of left hand artery with drug-eluting intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic 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 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 037F44Z

UNSPSC 85505163 Dilation of left hand artery with drug-eluting intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code. The code nominally describes a specific interventional cardiology procedure, yet the six most recent opportunities in the source solicitations span independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out networks, occupational health surveillance, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary ancillary health professional staffing. None of these opportunities involve dilation procedures, intraluminal devices, or interventional vascular work. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the underlying procurement database or a code that is not actively used for substantive state and local medical procurement.

State and local governments do not appear to be purchasing services under this code in any material volume or consistency. No representative recent opportunity aligns with the code's nominal scope, and no established pattern of issuing bodies, geographic concentration, or work type emerges from the source. A business development professional should treat this code as inactive or misapplied in current state and local procurement practice and verify the correct UNSPSC classification for any target opportunity before pursuing.
