UNSPSC 85503036: Insertion of intraluminal device into left temporal artery, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of intraluminal device into left temporal 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 03HT3DZ

UNSPSC 85503036 Insertion of intraluminal device into left temporal artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that appears in state and local procurement activity with a mismatch between its clinical procedure name and the actual work being solicited under it. The recent opportunities tagged to this code do not involve the insertion of intraluminal devices into temporal arteries; instead, they cover occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out networks for employee health plans, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. These are administrative healthcare management and staffing services, not interventional radiology or vascular procedures. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope.

State and local jurisdictions issuing under this code include county boards of commissioners, city retirement offices, state departments of transportation, county health systems, and county juvenile probation departments across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) covering disability benefit medical record review and examination scheduling for approximately 75 annual applications under the Public Safety Personnel Retirement System with a five-year maximum compensation of $750,000, and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for Washington State Ferries personnel (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) with examinations across 14 ferry locations and a two-year contract term with optional five-year extension. The County of Santa Clara Health System issued a non-exclusive multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) with no guaranteed work volume. The code's recent activity does not reflect coherent procurement in a single service or product line, suggesting either miscoding at posting or administrative drift in how this commodity classification is applied.
