UNSPSC 85816013: Introduction of intracirculatory anesthetic into peripheral artery, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a administrative intervention or procedure to introduction of intracirculatory anesthetic into peripheral artery, open approach. This administrative 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 3E050FZ

UNSPSC 85816013 Introduction of intracirculatory anesthetic into peripheral artery, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope describes a specific clinical intervention procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it encompass a disparate range of healthcare services bearing no clear connection to regional anesthetic delivery: virtual urgent care telehealth, occupational health services, cancer registry operations, retinal screening devices, PACE (Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) delivery, emergency medical services, employee wellness programs, and addiction treatment services. This mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the underlying procurement database or that the code is not the appropriate taxonomy fit for the opportunities sourced.

Issuing bodies across the recent opportunities span state health authorities (Nevada Health Authority, Colorado Department of Human Services, Texas Health and Human Services Commission), counties (Inland Empire Health Plan in San Bernardino County, DeKalb County Georgia, Brevard County Florida, Forsyth County Georgia, Santa Clara County California, Ventura County California, Sedgwick County Kansas), cities (San Mateo County California, City of Atlanta, City of Phoenix), specialized districts (Rockland County Department of Mental Health), and independent authorities (Events DC for the District of Columbia, Sourcewell as a Minnesota cooperative). Geographic spread includes California, Nevada, Colorado, Georgia, Florida, Kansas, Texas, and Arizona, with several multi-state or statewide solicitations. Recent opportunities with hard dates include the Nevada Health Authority's PACE RFP (proposals due December 10, 2026), the San Mateo County Cancer Registry and Retinal Screening Devices RFPs (due November 6, 2026 and October 12, 2026 respectively), Sedgwick County's opioid treatment initiatives (due September 15, 2026), and the Inland Empire Health Plan's virtual urgent care RFI (due October 31, 2026). The code shows no concentrated activity pattern; rather, it appears to serve as a catch-all default for healthcare service solicitations that may lack precise commodity classification within the UNSPSC taxonomy.
