UNSPSC 85511372: Occlusion of splenic 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 04L40ZZ

UNSPSC 85511372 Occlusion of splenic artery, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this designation. The code nominally refers to a surgical procedure for vascular obstruction, but the six recent solicitations tagged with this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out programs for municipal employees, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve splenic artery occlusion or open surgical vascular procedures. The mismatch signals either a systematic miscoding issue in the source data or a state and local procurement taxonomy misalignment that renders this code unreliable for business development targeting.

The recent activity under this code comes from Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara Health System, Collier County Board of County Commissioners), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department). The issuing bodies span municipal governments, county health systems and human resources departments, and state transportation agencies. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry terminal and vessel locations (due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System RFSQHHSFY270052 for a qualified vendor pool in temporary health professional staffing across thirteen clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). Given the categorical disconnection between the code definition and the work actually being solicited, this code does not present a reliable procurement signal for vendors in surgical or vascular procedures.
