UNSPSC 85502981: Release face 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 03NR3ZZ

UNSPSC 85502981 Release face artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific invasive vascular procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it span inmate medical and pharmacy services for county corrections, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care for county members, peer support services for mental health workers, and fire department medical director services — none of which align with interventional vascular procedures or percutaneous arterial access. State and local procurement offices do not solicit for individual clinical procedures under this code; the mismatch between the code's technical scope and the diversity of public health and human services work appearing in the tagged opportunities indicates either systematic miscoding or the code's inapplicability to state and local government purchasing patterns.

The sourced opportunities span Georgia (Columbus Consolidated Government for Muscogee County Prison inmate medical services), Florida (Collier County for pharmacy benefit management and Monroe County for virtual primary care), California (San Mateo County for peer mental health worker support), and California (Santa Monica Fire Department for EMS medical direction). These represent corrections healthcare contracting, health plan administration, employee and retiree telehealth, behavioral health innovation pilots, and municipal EMS medical oversight — service categories that state and local agencies are actively procuring but that do not map to the code's nominal description of a percutaneous vascular intervention. Business development professionals evaluating this code should treat it as inactive for state and local purposes and look instead to public health services, corrections health contracting, and employee health plan codes for relevant opportunities in these jurisdictions.
