About UNSPSC 85503242

UNSPSC 85503242 Supplement right temporal artery with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevance to state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific clinical surgical procedure — endovascular supplementation of the right temporal artery — and does not align with the scope of work actually being procured by state and local governments in the recent opportunities record.

The recent opportunities tagged under this code encompass independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance for transportation workers (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management administration (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (County of Santa Clara Health System). None of these solicitations concern vascular surgical procedures or implant-related services. The code's narrow procedural definition does not correspond to the administrative healthcare procurement, benefits management, occupational health screening, or clinical staffing services that state and local bodies are actually buying. State and local government procurement activity under this code reflects a systematic mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the broader healthcare administration and staffing demand that procurement offices have tagged with this identifier.
