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 04NE0ZZ

UNSPSC 85511306 Release right internal iliac artery, open approach is a Commodity code that appears to classify a specific surgical procedure, yet state and local governments are not soliciting procurement activity aligned with the nominal code definition. The recent opportunities tagged under this code involve inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support programs for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction—none of which represent surgical procedure procurement or the clinical work the code nominally describes. The mismatch between the code's surgical scope and the actual goods and services being solicited suggests this code sees little relevant recent activity for state and local procurement purposes in its intended domain.

Activity appears concentrated in Florida and Georgia, with isolated examples from California and California's Los Angeles County EMS context. Recent opportunities span county health systems, corrections departments, and municipal fire services rather than a coherent procurement category. Without evidence that state and local jurisdictions are actually purchasing or contracting for right internal iliac artery release procedures—or that the code is being applied consistently to healthcare service contracting more broadly—this code does not present a viable pursuit pathway for vendors serving the state and local procurement market. The tagging discrepancy signals either an indexing error in the opportunities database or misapplication of the UNSPSC taxonomy to these health services contracts.
