UNSPSC 85513700: Principal arteries abdomen, percutaneous endoscopic approach-part E

This class includes one or more of 17 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the principal arteries of the abdomen with percutaneous endoscopic approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 04.

UNSPSC 85513700 Principal arteries abdomen, percutaneous endoscopic approach-part E is a Class code with little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code appears designed to classify medical procedure codes or clinical intervention taxonomies used in health care billing and coding systems, but the recent opportunities tagged under this code do not reflect purchases of abdomen procedure services or related surgical interventions. Instead, the tagged solicitations span jail and prison medical services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary care, peer support staffing, and fire department medical direction — none of which align with the code's stated scope of percutaneous endoscopic procedures on principal arteries of the abdomen.

The mismatch between the code name and the work actually being solicited suggests either a tagging error in the source data or a misalignment between UNSPSC taxonomy application and the actual commodities and services state and local governments are buying under this classification. No procurement activity directly relevant to the code's medical procedure scope has appeared in recent state and local solicitation activity. Firms evaluating this code should confirm with issuing bodies whether it is being used appropriately for their particular goods or services or whether a different Class or Family code more accurately reflects their business line.
