UNSPSC 85512960: Occlusion of gastric artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of gastric 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 04L23CZ

UNSPSC 85512960 Occlusion of gastric artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract activity tagged under it. The code nominally describes a specific interventional radiology procedure — vascular occlusion performed in an inpatient setting — yet the six recent opportunities posted under this code span independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, surgical carve-out benefit administration for municipal employees, occupational health medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing. None of these solicitations involve gastric artery occlusion devices or related implantable medical products. The mislabeling suggests a data-quality issue in the source system rather than active state and local procurement in this device category.

The recent opportunities under the code originate from diverse issuing bodies — city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal human resources departments (Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Ferries), county health systems and probation departments (Harris County, Santa Clara County), and county commissioners' offices (Collier County) — but they represent health-plan administration, occupational medicine, youth detention health services, and clinical staffing rather than procurement of medical devices or procedures. Because the code's nominal scope does not match what is actually being bought, this code shows little relevant activity for firms pursuing device manufacturing, distribution, or procedure-center contracts in the interventional radiology space.
