This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of innominate artery, 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 03523ZZ

UNSPSC 85502248 Destruction of innominate artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominates a highly specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code are purchasing occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical record summary and evaluation coordination, surgical procedure carve-out networks, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention medical services—none of which involve destruction of an innominate artery. The issuing bodies are diverse: state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and health systems. No pattern of repeat buyers emerges from the limited recent opportunities.

The geographic spread includes Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas, reflecting national activity rather than concentration. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026, the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP due October 16, 2026, and Santa Clara County Health System's temporary health professional staffing qualifications vehicle due October 7, 2026. The mismatch between the code's nominal procedure and the services actually being solicited under it suggests either miscoding by the issuing jurisdictions or a data-integrity issue with the UNSPSC classification itself. Firms evaluating this code should verify the actual commodities they intend to pursue before committing resources, as the code does not reliably predict the content of solicitations bearing its label.
