UNSPSC 85513864: Dilation of right common iliac artery with drug-eluting intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of right common iliac artery with drug-eluting intraluminal 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 047C44Z

UNSPSC 85513864 Dilation of right common iliac artery with drug-eluting intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code assigned to medical procedures, yet the recent state and local solicitations posted under it bear no relationship to vascular surgery or interventional radiology. The code shows a clear mismatch between its nominal scope—a specific surgical intervention on the iliac artery—and the actual work state and local governments are buying under this classification. Recent opportunities include independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, specialty surgical benefits administration, emergency medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing. This classification error renders the code practically unusable for market analysis or business development targeting at the state and local level.

The geographic spread across the recent postings spans Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), Washington (Washington State Ferries), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), but this dispersion reflects misclassification rather than legitimate code activity. Issuing bodies range from city retirement offices and county health systems to state transportation agencies and county juvenile probation departments, covering multiple service lines that have no connection to vascular intervention. A business development professional evaluating genuine opportunities in occupational medicine, benefits administration, emergency care, or temporary staffing should source opportunities through codes directly aligned with those service lines rather than attempt to work under this cardiovascular-procedure classification. Until the taxonomy correction occurs at the source, this code offers no actionable signal for state and local procurement pursuit.
