UNSPSC 85612451: Insertion of monitoring device into liver, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of monitoring device into liver, open 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 0FH002Z

UNSPSC 85612451 Insertion of monitoring device into liver, open approach is a Commodity code that bears no meaningful relationship to the state and local procurement opportunities currently posted under it. The recent solicitations tagged with this code—independent medical evaluations for public safety pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—involve no liver-monitoring devices or surgical insertion procedures. The code appears to be a classification artifact; state and local buyers are using it to tag general healthcare administration, benefits management, and occupational health services rather than the specific invasive medical procedure the code nominally describes.

The issuing bodies span a geographic and sectoral mix: the City of Phoenix (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Most recent activity is concentrated in California and the Southwest, with isolated activity in the Pacific Northwest and Texas. Because the code shows no coherent purchasing activity aligned with its nominal scope, use of it for business development purposes is not warranted. Vendors pursuing healthcare administration, medical staffing, or occupational health services should monitor the jurisdictions and issuing bodies listed above through their direct procurement channels rather than relying on this code as a discovery or filtering mechanism.
