This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from left internal iliac artery, open approach.

UNSPSC 85511446, Extirpation of matter from left internal iliac artery, open approach, is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code nominally refers to a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local contract opportunities tagged to this code do not involve vascular surgery, arterial intervention, or any procedural work matching its abstract scope.

The solicitations posted under this code in recent months include independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, RFP due October 16, 2026), surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit programs for public employees (City of Long Beach, RFP due October 7, 2026), occupational medical surveillance for transportation workers (Washington State Department of Transportation, RFP due October 9, 2026), emergency and specialty medical services for youth in detention (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, RFI due September 25, 2026), pharmacy benefit management administration (Collier County Board of County Commissioners, RFP due April 9, 2026), and temporary ancillary health professional staffing (County of Santa Clara Health System, RFP due October 7, 2026). These opportunities span health plan administration, occupational health screening, benefits consulting, and staffing coordination—none of which align with surgical intervention on arterial systems. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the source data or a systematic miscoding of medical services activity. State and local buyers in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington are actively procuring health and medical services, but not under this procedure-specific code's actual scope.
