UNSPSC 85816023: Introduction of other antineoplastic into peripheral artery, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a administrative intervention or procedure to introduction of other antineoplastic 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 3E05005

UNSPSC 85816023 "Introduction of other antineoplastic into peripheral artery, open approach" is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity captured in the source. The code nominally describes a medical procedure — direct arterial infusion of chemotherapy — yet the recent opportunities solicited under this code span virtual urgent care, PACE operations, cancer registry services, medical directorships, occupational health screening, behavioral health programs, and emergency medical services staffing, none of which involve antineoplastic drug delivery or arterial access procedures. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the source data or a severe divergence between the code's intended scope and actual procurement use.

State and local governments are not soliciting chemotherapy administration services under this code; instead, recent activity shows a fragmented issuing-body mix across health authorities (Nevada Health Authority), counties (DeKalb, San Mateo, Forsyth, Santa Clara, Sedgwick, Ventura), cities (Phoenix, Ocala, Atlanta), state agencies (Colorado Department of Human Services, Texas HHSC, Illinois Secretary of State, New Jersey Department of Health), and special-purpose districts (Inland Empire Health Plan, Events DC, Rockland County Department of Mental Health). Geographic spread includes California, Georgia, Nevada, Colorado, Texas, Illinois, New Jersey, Florida, Arizona, Kansas, Oregon, Missouri, and the District of Columbia. Representative recent opportunities include Inland Empire Health Plan's RFI for virtual urgent care services due October 31, 2026; Nevada Health Authority's RFP for PACE operations due December 10, 2026; San Mateo County's RFP for cancer registry services due November 6, 2026; and Sedgwick County's multiple RFPs for opioid use disorder treatment and prevention services due September 15, 2026. The code shows little relevant recent activity and should not be relied upon for procurement targeting in antineoplastic therapy, arterial access, or oncology-specific drug delivery; the opportunities posted under it reflect healthcare services procurement broadly rather than the specialized chemotherapy procedure the code nominally describes.
