UNSPSC 85512748: Supplement splenic artery with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement splenic artery with autologous tissue substitute, 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 04U437Z

UNSPSC 85512748 Supplement splenic artery with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that appears to describe a specific surgical procedure, yet state and local government procurement activity under this code shows no alignment with its clinical nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged to this code cover independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations, occupational medical surveillance, surgical benefit program administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth — none of which involve splenic artery supplementation or autologous tissue substitution. The mismatch between the code's procedure-specific title and the actual scope of solicitations suggests either a classification error in the source data or that this code is being used by issuing bodies to tag medical and health services work that does not match the UNSPSC taxonomy definition.

The issuing bodies across these opportunities include city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal health systems (Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice and human services agencies (Harris County, Collier County), and regional health systems (Santa Clara County). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no clear concentration in any single region. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services with a $750,000 five-year contract maximum and October 16, 2026 due date; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry terminals with an October 9, 2026 deadline; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award solicitation for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026. Given the absence of procurement activity that actually reflects the code's stated clinical scope, this code does not represent a viable pursuit opportunity in state and local procurement.
