UNSPSC 85503235: Supplement right thyroid artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right thyroid artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 03UU4KZ

UNSPSC 85503235, "Supplement right thyroid artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach," is a Commodity code that does not align with the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under this category. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span medical evaluation and staffing services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, and surgical procedure carve-outs — none of which involve thyroid artery supplementation or the surgical procedure the code nominally describes. The code shows little relevant recent activity for the specialized vascular procedure its name suggests.

The six opportunities posted since mid-August 2026 indicate that the code's assignment reflects a data-classification mismatch rather than active procurement in thyroid vascular procedures. The issuing bodies include state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and human resources offices (Santa Clara County Health System, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix). Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no pattern of procurement specific to the thyroid procedure the code names. Practitioners should verify coding accuracy with state and local procurement offices before allocating resources to this classification.
