UNSPSC 85512953: Occlusion of splenic artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of splenic 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 04L43DZ

UNSPSC 85512953 Occlusion of splenic artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous approach (Commodity) shows little activity relevant to state and local government procurement. The code nominally describes a specific interventional medical procedure — endovascular occlusion of the splenic artery — yet the recent opportunities tagged under it reflect broad health services administration and staffing, not the procedural intervention the code name specifies. State and local purchasing offices do not typically procure individual clinical procedures through competitive solicitation; they contract for provider networks, benefit management, occupational health programs, and staffing capacity that may include such procedures as part of bundled or carve-out benefits. The mismatch between the code's technical scope and actual procurement activity suggests either a classification error in the source data or use of this commodity code as a placeholder for health services categories that lack precise UNSPSC alignment.

The recent opportunities posted under this code span health systems (Santa Clara County Health System, Washington State Ferries occupational health), county retirement boards (Phoenix Fire and Police Pension Boards), municipal benefits administration (City of Long Beach), county benefits consortiums (Collier County Health Care Consortium), and a county juvenile probation department (Harris County). Geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (proposals due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance (proposals due October 9, 2026), and the City of Long Beach RFP for a surgical carve-out benefit program (proposals due October 7, 2026). None of these solicitations actually procure the splenic artery occlusion procedure or similar discrete clinical interventions; instead, they seek administrative, staffing, or benefit network services that may encompass such procedures at scale. For firms targeting state and local health contracting, this code's current activity does not represent a coherent procurement category and warrants verification against the correct UNSPSC family before pursuing.
