UNSPSC 85511592 Dilation of gastric artery, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code appears to describe a specific surgical procedure (gastric artery dilation performed through open surgical approach), which falls outside the scope of typical state and local government contracting. The six recent opportunities posted under this code between July and September 2026 include independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations (Phoenix), surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees (Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance for ferry system workers (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (Santa Clara County Health System). None of these solicitations involve gastric artery dilation or procedural surgery coding; they represent health benefits administration, occupational health screening, clinical staffing, and detention-facility medical services. The code-opportunity mismatch suggests a UNSPSC categorization error rather than active procurement interest in the procedure itself.

State and local buyers do not appear to be procuring gastric artery dilation services under this code. The issuing bodies across the recent records — county retirement offices, municipal employee benefits programs, state transportation departments, county juvenile justice systems, and county health systems — are structured to purchase health plan administration, occupational health programs, and clinical staffing pools rather than specialized surgical procedures. No response dates, dollar values, or geographic concentration patterns apply to gastric artery dilation specifically. Vendors pursuing state and local contracts should flag this code as misclassified and verify the correct UNSPSC assignment before investing in pursuit strategy.
