UNSPSC 85503054: Extirpation of matter from face artery, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from 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 03CR3ZZ

UNSPSC 85503054 Extirpation of matter from face artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged under it—independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—do not align with the code's stated scope. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the sourcing system or that this code is being used as a catchall for healthcare services procurement rather than for a defined surgical intervention. None of the recent solicitations involve face artery procedures or percutaneous vascular interventions.

The issuing bodies span multiple jurisdiction types: municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), city government (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), county human resources and health consortiums (Collier County), and county health systems (Santa Clara Health System). Geographic activity includes Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 (maximum contract value $750,000 over five years), and the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026 with a pre-bid conference scheduled August 31, 2026. Given the absence of genuine surgical-procurement activity under this code, it warrants skipping unless your firm operates in healthcare staffing or benefit administration—domains plainly separate from the code's nominal scope.
