UNSPSC 85511353: Occlusion of inferior mesenteric artery with extraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of inferior mesenteric artery with extraluminal 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 04LB0CZ

UNSPSC 85511353 Occlusion of inferior mesenteric artery with extraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local procurement opportunities posted under it. The recent solicitations in the data set target occupational and disability-related medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, surgical center-of-excellence coordination, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth — none of which involve vascular occlusion procedures or medical device implantation. The code's nominal scope describes a specific interventional vascular surgical procedure, but the opportunities actually being procured are administrative and staffing services in occupational health, benefits administration, and clinical workforce management.

The issuing bodies posting under this code include state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and pension boards (Santa Clara County Health System, Phoenix Retirement Office, Collier County), municipal governments (City of Long Beach, City of Phoenix), and county juvenile probation departments (Harris County). Recent geographic activity spans Washington, California, Arizona, and Florida. Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026) seeking physician-led baseline and periodic examinations across 14 locations, the City of Phoenix RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability pension determinations (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary ancillary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026). The code shows recent activity but appears to be misclassified across multiple issuers, suggesting procurement offices may be using it as a catch-all for medical services rather than its intended surgical-procedure scope.
