This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of gastric artery with extraluminal device, 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 04L24CZ

UNSPSC 85513680 Occlusion of gastric artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code whose stated title does not align with the state and local contract opportunities posted under it. Recent solicitations tagged to this code reflect procurement of occupational medical surveillance, disability evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical center-of-excellence networks, and juvenile detention medical services — none of which correspond to the specific gastroenterological intervention named in the code taxonomy. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the source data or a systemic classification drift in how this code is being applied at the state and local level. State and local procurement offices appear to be using this code as a catch-all for diverse healthcare and medical services procurement rather than for the narrowly defined endovascular procedure the code nominally describes.

The issuing bodies include county health systems (Santa Clara, Harris, Collier), city retirement offices (Phoenix), state transportation departments (Washington), and municipal governments (Long Beach), spanning Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP with an October 9, 2026 due date and pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office disability medical evaluation services RFP with a $750,000 five-year maximum contract and October 16, 2026 due date; the City of Long Beach surgical carve-out benefit RFP due October 7, 2026; and the Collier County Pharmacy Benefit Management RFP with an April 9, 2026 deadline and approximately $8.7 million annual historical spending. Given the code's apparent misuse or broad reinterpretation, business developers pursuing opportunities in this taxonomy should verify actual work scope at posting rather than relying on the code title alone.
