UNSPSC 85511377: Occlusion of hepatic artery with extraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of hepatic 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 04L30CZ

UNSPSC 85511377 (Occlusion of hepatic artery with extraluminal device, open approach) is a Commodity code that shows minimal recent alignment with state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a medical device procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged under it span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluation services for pension boards, surgical procedure carve-outs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody — none of which are device-based hepatic artery procedures. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the source data or a fundamental misalignment between the code's technical name and how state and local procurement offices are using it in practice.

The geographic distribution of recent activity includes Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach and Santa Clara County Health System), Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County), though the solicitations do not represent procurement under the code's nominal scope. The most recent substantive opportunity is the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP 26001 (due October 16, 2026) for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability pension determinations — a project worth $750,000 over five years — but this procurement addresses medical record review and examination scheduling, not the device-based procedure the code describes. Given the consistent mismatch between the code name and the actual scope of tagged opportunities, vendors evaluating this code should verify the correct UNSPSC classification with the issuing body before pursuing work.
