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 049330Z

UNSPSC 85513134 Drainage of hepatic artery with drainage device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six recent opportunities posted under this code—independent medical evaluation services for pension boards, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, youth detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—are administrative and operational healthcare purchasing, not hepatic artery drainage procedures or related interventional radiology devices. The code appears to be a clinical procedure taxonomy entry misapplied to state and local government procurement systems; state and local bodies do not typically solicit or contract for specific inpatient surgical procedures through competitive bidding processes.

The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the broad administrative healthcare services actually appearing in the source suggests this code either lacks current market activity in the state and local space or is not the appropriate classification for any work these jurisdictions are buying. Procurement professionals should verify the correct UNSPSC coding before pursuing opportunities tagged with this code.
