UNSPSC 85503250: Supplement right external carotid 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 external carotid 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 03UM4KZ

UNSPSC 85503250 Supplement right external carotid artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope — a highly specific surgical procedure — does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under it. The six recent solicitations in the block represent disability medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these opportunities solicit the procurement of implantable medical devices, tissue substitutes, or procedural services matching the code's technical description. The mismatch suggests either a data classification error in the state or local procurement systems tagging these opportunities, or a code that sees minimal relevant activity in state and local contracting.

The geographic spread of the six tagged opportunities spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington State (WSDOT), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), with no concentration in any single jurisdiction. The issuing bodies include a city retirement office, a county human resources division, a state transportation agency, a county juvenile probation department, and a county health system — a diverse mix across administrative and health-service domains. The code shows no relevant recent activity for the surgical procedure it nominally describes.
