UNSPSC 85513446: Supplement splenic artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement splenic artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 04U44KZ

UNSPSC 85513446 Supplement splenic artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent activity aligned with its stated scope. The six recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code—independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgery benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—are administrative healthcare services, benefits management, and staffing functions, not surgical interventions or tissue-substitute procedures. The code's nominal focus on a specific vascular surgical technique does not match the actual work being solicited.

State and local procurement offices across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington have posted these opportunities, but none involve the procurement of medical devices, supplies, or surgical services within the code's stated scope. The mismatch between code designation and actual procurement activity suggests either a data-entry error in the state and local systems or that the code has been repurposed locally in ways that diverge from the UNSPSC standard. Without evidence of recent solicitations for vascular surgical procedures or nonautologous tissue substitutes, this code presents no clear business development signal for firms focused on medical device or surgical supply contracting.
