UNSPSC 85512651: Restriction of hepatic artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of hepatic artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous 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 04V33CZ

UNSPSC 85512651 Restriction of hepatic artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under it are unrelated to hepatic artery restriction and span instead disability medical evaluations, occupational health surveillance, employee health benefits administration, youth detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing — services and programs that do not involve this procedure.

The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the opportunities tagged to it suggests either miscoding in the state and local procurement systems or use of the code as a placeholder for broader healthcare services categorization. State and local procurement offices do not typically solicit individual procedural codes; they solicit healthcare services, staffing, and benefits administration at higher taxonomic tiers. Vendors evaluating activity under this code should verify current tagging practices with issuing bodies and confirm that procedure-specific Commodity codes actually reflect procurement intent before investing in pursuit.
