UNSPSC 85513547: Replacement of splenic artery with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of splenic artery with synthetic 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 04R44JZ

UNSPSC 85513547 Replacement of splenic artery with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach, a Commodity code, shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal scope. The code appears designed to classify a specific surgical procedure, but the state and local opportunities tagged to it do not involve splenic artery replacement or related vascular surgery. Instead, the opportunities span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, specialty and emergency medical services in youth detention, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which align with the procedural focus of the code itself. The mismatch between the code's stated scope and actual solicitation content suggests either tagging error or the code's limited applicability in state and local procurement.

The recent opportunities issuing bodies include a state transportation department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, County of Santa Clara), and cities (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), with geographic spread across Washington, Florida, California, Arizona, and Texas. Representative solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 Washington ferry locations with proposals due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's request for independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability determinations with proposals due October 16, 2026; and the City of Long Beach's request for a surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit program with proposals due October 7, 2026. None of these opportunities involve the procedural intervention the code describes, indicating minimal procurement activity aligned with the Commodity's intended classification.
