UNSPSC 85512947: Occlusion of right colic artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of right colic artery with intraluminal 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 04L63DZ

UNSPSC 85512947 Occlusion of right colic artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code assigned to medical procedure and vascular intervention services, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it show minimal alignment with the code's nominal scope. The recent solicitations posted under this code span occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs, and emergency youth detention medical care — none of which involve occlusion procedures or intraluminal vascular devices. This represents a substantial mismatch between the code label and actual procurement activity.

The recent opportunities originate from a mix of issuing bodies: the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical record summaries and independent medical evaluations), the City of Long Beach (surgical benefit management), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing), and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services for youth in custody). Activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, and Texas. Given the functional mismatch between the UNSPSC code label and the work actually being procured, this code appears poorly calibrated to state and local medical contracting practice and warrants verification against corrected or more granular commodity classifications before pursuing opportunities tagged under it.
