This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of right temporal artery with intraluminal device, 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 037S0DZ

UNSPSC 85502738 Dilation of right temporal artery with intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that shows a fundamental mismatch between its nominal medical-device scope and the recent state and local opportunities posted under it. The recent solicitations involve occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent disability medical evaluations, surgical care carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody — none of which align with vascular surgical device procurement or the specific procedural code named in the taxonomy. State and local governments do not appear to be buying temporal artery dilation devices or related surgical supplies under this code in current procurement activity.

The opportunities that are tagged to this code originate from diverse issuing bodies including city retirement offices (Phoenix), county health systems (Santa Clara, Harris County, Collier County), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), and municipal employee benefit programs (Long Beach), with activity concentrated in California, Arizona, Washington, and Florida. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026 with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code as currently applied does not reflect a coherent procurement category and presents minimal opportunity for vendors in medical device, cardiovascular, or surgical instrumentation supply.
