UNSPSC 85511044: Restriction of superior mesenteric artery with intraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of superior mesenteric artery with intraluminal device, open 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 04V50DZ

UNSPSC 85511044 Restriction of superior mesenteric artery with intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that appears in state and local procurement databases with minimal alignment to actual buying activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code show no solicitations for the specific surgical procedure the code nominally describes. Instead, the tagged opportunities span independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve superior mesenteric artery procedures or the surgical instrumentation this code represents. The mismatch suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or a disconnect between the UNSPSC taxonomy applied and the clinical services actually being procured.

No recent state and local contract opportunities under this code reflect demand for the procedure itself. The geographic sources of the tagged opportunities span Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington State (Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), but these jurisdictions are soliciting health plan administration, staffing services, and occupational health programs—none involving the surgical restriction procedure this code describes. Given the absence of relevant recent activity and the clear mismatch between code definition and sourced opportunities, this code does not represent actionable market demand in state and local procurement at this time.
