UNSPSC 85513018: Insertion of infusion device into inferior mesenteric artery, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of infusion device into inferior mesenteric artery, 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 04HB33Z

UNSPSC 85513018 Insertion of infusion device into inferior mesenteric artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its clinical scope. The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 — independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, specialty medical services for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — represent healthcare administration, benefits management, and occupational health services rather than interventional vascular procedures or the placement of infusion devices into specific arterial locations. State and local governments do not solicit for this type of clinical procedure code directly; hospital systems and health departments procure medical services through facility contracts, managed care agreements, or staff positions, not through procedure-level UNSPSC codes.

The mismatch between the code's clinical nomenclature and the actual state and local healthcare purchasing happening under its designation signals that either the code was misapplied to these opportunities by issuing-body procurement offices, or the code itself is used as a catch-all for healthcare service categories that do not fit neatly into administrative taxonomy. The recent activity spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington (WSDOT and Washington State Ferries), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), but none of it involves infusion device insertion or similar interventional procedures. For business development purposes, this code should be monitored for actual procedure-related solicitations; current activity offers no relevant opportunity flow.
