About UNSPSC 85502578

UNSPSC 85502578 Replacement of right temporal artery with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the six recent opportunities tagged under it—independent medical evaluations for retirement disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—address administrative health services, benefits management, and clinical staffing rather than vascular surgery or arterial replacement. The mismatch between the code's clinical procedure scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either miscoding in the state and local procurement system or that this code does not serve as a standard procurement vehicle for the kinds of health services state and local bodies are currently buying.

No representative solicitations exist under this code for work that aligns with vascular surgical procedures or arterial replacement services. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for state and local procurement purposes and monitor higher-level health services codes (such as Family or Class codes for medical staffing, benefits administration, or occupational health services) where the recent activity is concentrated.
