UNSPSC 85621142: Extirpation of matter from aortic body, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from aortic body, 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 0GCD0ZZ

UNSPSC 85621142 Extirpation of matter from aortic body, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal medical-procedure taxonomy does not align with recent state and local contracting activity. The code shows no relevant recent opportunities; the tagged solicitations involve occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefits, surgical procedure networks, youth detention healthcare, and temporary clinical staffing—none of which constitute extirpation of aortic-body matter or procedural surgery codes that would belong in this classification. The mismatch between the code's stated scope and the work actually being solicited suggests either a data-entry error in the source's classification or a systematic misalignment in how state and local procurement offices tag health services RFPs to UNSPSC taxonomy.

The recent opportunities do reflect broad health benefits and medical evaluation procurement across multiple issuing bodies—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical evaluations, $750,000 over five years, RFP due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach (surgical carve-out benefits, RFP due October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (occupational medical surveillance across 14 Washington locations, RFP due October 9, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, RFI due September 25, 2026), Collier County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management, historical spend approximately $8.7 million annually, three-year initial term through December 31, 2028), and Santa Clara County Health System (temporary ancillary clinical staffing, multiple-award qualification vehicle, proposals due October 7, 2026). Business development professionals should verify the correct UNSPSC code assignment with the issuing procurement office before pursuing—this code as stated does not represent actionable procurement activity in state and local markets today.
