UNSPSC 85502969: Repair right thyroid artery, 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 03QU3ZZ

UNSPSC 85502969 Repair right thyroid artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The five recent opportunities in the source—covering inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support for peer workers, and fire department medical director services—do not involve thyroid artery repair or related surgical or procedural services. The code appears to describe a specific clinical intervention rather than a category of goods or services that state and local jurisdictions regularly solicit through competitive procurement channels.

State and local purchasing activity under medical UNSPSC codes typically involves broader service categories such as managed care administration, pharmacy benefits management, emergency medical services direction, and behavioral health support—all present in the recent opportunities but unrelated to surgical vascular repair. The mismatch suggests either that this code is rarely applied to state and local procurement or that opportunities tagged with it do not reflect its nominal scope.
