UNSPSC 85502418: Excision of innominate artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of innominate artery, percutaneous endoscopic 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 03B24ZZ

UNSPSC 85502418 Excision of innominate artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) shows no meaningful recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the six recent opportunities tagged under it involve independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, specialty surgical benefit programs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency youth detention medical services — none of which align with procurement of the procedure itself or related clinical supplies and equipment.

The mismatch reflects misclassification rather than active demand under the code. State and local governments do not systematically procure specific surgical procedures as line items; instead, they contract for medical services delivery, health plan administration, occupational health programs, and staffing. The opportunities present span Arizona (Phoenix Fire and Police Pension Boards' independent medical evaluation services, due October 16, 2026), California (City of Long Beach surgical benefit carve-out program, due October 7, 2026; Santa Clara Health System temporary health professional staffing, due October 7, 2026), Washington (WSDOT occupational medical surveillance, due October 9, 2026), Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefit management, due April 9, 2026), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department specialty medical services RFI, due September 25, 2026). This code warrants close review before bidding; consider whether the opportunity is genuinely procuring services within your firm's capability or whether the tagging error signals a search-and-qualification mismatch.
