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

UNSPSC 85511448 Extirpation of matter from left common iliac artery, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local opportunities solicited under this code do not involve vascular surgery or arterial intervention. Instead, the recent activity spans occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluations for public-safety pension disability determinations, surgical carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence networks, and temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical roles—none of which relate to the code's stated procedure. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, county health systems, state transportation departments, counties, and county juvenile probation departments.

Recent opportunities show geographic spread across Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County). Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (response due October 16, 2026) for approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications with a $750,000 maximum over five years, the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations (response due October 9, 2026, pre-bid scheduled August 31, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories including audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, and therapy services (response due October 7, 2026). The code appears to be a miscategorization or tagging error and presents minimal procurement relevance to its nominal scope.
