UNSPSC 85515830: Occlusion of right femoral artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of right femoral artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous 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 04LK3CZ

UNSPSC 85515830 Occlusion of right femoral artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under it. The code nominally describes a specific interventional vascular medical device and procedure, yet the recent solicitations reflect broader health services procurement spanning occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical carve-out benefit programs, and emergency youth detention medical services—none of which involve femoral artery occlusion devices or the percutaneous placement of extraluminal vascular devices.

The mismatch suggests either a UNSPSC classification error in the source data or that this code's use in state and local procurement systems does not reflect its intended clinical scope. Across the six recent opportunities, the issuing bodies span state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and regional health systems, with work geographically dispersed across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. No recent opportunities directly solicit for the device or procedure named in the code itself. A business development professional evaluating this code should treat the recent activity as misclassified and seek clarification on actual UNSPSC assignment before pursuing state and local opportunities under this designation.
