This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of infusion device into middle colic 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 04H803Z

UNSPSC 85511424 Insertion of infusion device into middle colic artery, open approach is a Commodity code that appears in state and local procurement records with little relevant recent activity — the recent opportunities posted under this code do not align with its clinical procedural scope. The code's nominal definition describes a specific surgical intervention, yet the solicitations tagged to it span 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 these opportunities involve insertion of infusion devices into middle colic arteries or comparable vascular interventions. The mismatch suggests either miscoding of opportunities by issuing bodies or a systematic misalignment between how state and local procurement systems classify health services contracts and the UNSPSC taxonomy itself.

No state and local procurement activity directly matching the Commodity code's clinical scope appears in the recent opportunities block. The geographic distribution of the miscoded opportunities spans Georgia (Muscogee County Prison inmate medical services), Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefit management and Monroe County virtual care), California (San Mateo County behavioral health peer support), and California again (Santa Monica Fire Department medical direction), but these represent health services procurement broadly rather than activity under the stated code. Business development professionals evaluating this code should treat it as inactive for their purposes and investigate whether their target jurisdictions are using alternative codes or commodity descriptions for comparable clinical or vascular procedure services if those services fall within their service line.
