UNSPSC 85511431: Insertion of intraluminal device into splenic artery, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of intraluminal device into 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 04H40DZ

UNSPSC 85511431 Insertion of intraluminal device into splenic artery, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure involving vascular intervention, but the six recent opportunities solicited under this code — from the City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System — are uniformly requesting healthcare administration, occupational health services, medical staffing, and pharmacy benefit management. None of the solicitations concern surgical device placement or vascular procedures. This represents a significant tagging mismatch between the UNSPSC code and the actual procurement activity.

The recent opportunities span diverse healthcare service categories without apparent connection to intraluminal splenic artery devices: medical record review and disability medical evaluation (Phoenix), surgical procedure carve-out benefit programs (Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Ferries), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County), pharmacy benefit management administration (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical roles (Santa Clara County Health System). The issuing bodies represent state departments, counties, cities, and public health systems across Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. Given the absence of procurement activity that matches the code's nominal clinical scope, this code shows little relevant recent activity for vendors specialized in vascular surgical devices or related products and services.
