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 047C4ZZ

UNSPSC 85513862 Dilation of right common iliac artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually procuring under this code. The recent solicitations tagged to this code address occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs, and emergency medical services for youth in custody — none of which involve percutaneous endoscopic dilation of iliac arteries. The code's nominal clinical procedure description bears no relationship to the scope of services being bought in the state and local market. State and local buyers are not procuring this specific interventional procedure; the code shows a fundamental mismatch between its taxonomy name and the actual purchasing activity assigned to it.

The geographic spread of recent activity includes Washington State (occupational medical surveillance through the Department of Transportation), Arizona (Phoenix Retirement Office), California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County). The issuing bodies span city pension boards, state transportation agencies, county procurement offices, and county health systems. Given the absence of any recent opportunity that actually corresponds to an interventional cardiology or vascular procedure, this code does not warrant pursuit under its stated definition.
