UNSPSC 85502939: Supplement left temporal artery with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left temporal artery with synthetic substitute, 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 03UT3JZ

UNSPSC 85502939 Supplement left temporal artery with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach (Commodity) shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure — vascular augmentation of the temporal artery — yet the five most recent opportunities tagged under it concern inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support for peer workers, and fire department medical direction. None of these solicitations involve vascular surgery, temporal artery procedures, or the clinical intervention the code nominally describes. The mismatch between the code's procedural scope and the opportunities posted suggests either a systematic tagging error in the state and local procurement systems that use this UNSPSC classification or that the code is not actively used to describe work state and local governments actually buy.

Bidders pursuing healthcare and medical services with state and local jurisdictions should verify UNSPSC classification accuracy before relying on this code for market research, opportunity filtering, or bid tracking. The issuing bodies posting under 85502939 — including Muscogee County (Georgia), Collier County (Florida), Monroe County (Florida), San Mateo County (California), and Santa Monica Fire Department (California) — are actively procuring healthcare administration, pharmacy management, and medical staffing services through RFPs with response dates ranging from April through October 2026, but none of these opportunities align with the temporal artery surgical procedure the code describes.
