UNSPSC 85503062: Excision of right 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 03BS3ZZ

UNSPSC 85503062 Excision of right temporal artery, percutaneous approach (Commodity) shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The five recent opportunities sourced under this code — inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction — span healthcare administration, benefits management, and clinical leadership, but do not involve surgical procedures or vascular excision. The code's nominal scope (a specific surgical intervention) does not align with what state and local governments are actually purchasing under this classification, suggesting either a data-tagging mismatch in procurement systems or a code that does not reflect active state and local demand for this service line.

The issuing bodies in the available records include county governments (Muscogee County, Georgia; Collier County, Florida; Monroe County, Florida; San Mateo County, California) and municipal fire services (Santa Monica Fire Department, California), but the opportunities themselves address healthcare contracting, benefits administration, and clinical staffing rather than surgical services. Without evidence of state and local solicitations for temporal artery excision or related vascular procedures under this code, business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for practical procurement purposes and monitor other UNSPSC classifications better aligned with surgical or invasive-procedure contracting if those markets are relevant to your firm.
