UNSPSC 85511327: Occlusion of left external iliac artery, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of left external iliac artery, 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 04LJ0ZZ

UNSPSC 85511327 Occlusion of left external iliac artery, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it span occupational medical surveillance, disability pension medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve vascular occlusion procedures. This classification mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in the underlying procurement database or misapplication of a clinical procedure code to health services contracting.

State and local issuing bodies posting under this code include county human resources departments (Collier County, Santa Clara County Health System), city retirement offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and municipal government employers (City of Long Beach). Recent activity centers in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's request for independent medical evaluation services for approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications under Arizona's Public Safety Personnel Retirement System (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years); the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 locations (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing including audiology, imaging, respiratory care, and surgical services (RFS RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The classification appears unsuitable for business development targeting without upstream code correction.
