UNSPSC 85511037 Restriction of left colic artery, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The five most recently posted opportunities tagged to this code involve inmate medical and pharmacy services (Muscogee County Prison), pharmacy benefit management for county employees (Collier County, Florida), virtual primary and urgent care services (Monroe County, Florida), peer support services for behavioral health workers (San Mateo County, California), and a fire department medical director contract (Santa Monica Fire Department). None of these solicitations involve surgical restriction of the left colic artery or any vascular surgical procedure; they span correctional health administration, pharmacy plan management, telemedicine, mental health peer support, and emergency medical services oversight—categories that fall outside the code's stated scope.

The code appears to have been applied to these opportunities as a data-entry error or system miscategorization rather than reflecting accurate commodity classification. State and local procurement offices typically do not solicit surgical procedures directly; such services are purchased through healthcare provider contracts, managed care agreements, or hospital service line arrangements tagged to different UNSPSC families. Business development professionals should disregard this code as a signal of actionable state and local opportunity and verify coding accuracy with the relevant procurement office if pursuing correctional health, employee health plan management, or emergency medical services opportunities.
