UNSPSC 85502609: Repair right common carotid artery, open 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 03QH0ZZ

UNSPSC 85502609 Repair right common carotid artery, open approach is a Commodity code that does not match the work being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged under this code solicited occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out administration, and emergency medical services for youth in custody — none of which involve carotid artery repair. This represents a significant misalignment between code assignment and actual procurement activity.

The geographic spread of recent opportunities spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County). With no recent solicitations under this code actually seeking carotid artery repair services or related vascular surgical procedures, the code shows no meaningful activity for business development professionals pursuing state and local work in this specific surgical service line.
