This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right common carotid artery with autologous 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 03RH47Z

UNSPSC 85503294 Replacement of right common carotid artery with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure on a blood vessel; however, the recent opportunities tagged under it reflect medical services procurement by state and local entities — occupational health surveillance, disability benefits medical evaluation, pharmacy benefit administration, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which correspond to carotid artery replacement procedures. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being solicited suggests the code is either rarely used for state and local procurement or has been misapplied to these opportunities by issuing bodies.

The recent solicitations active under this code span several states and issuing-body types: the Washington State Department of Transportation solicited occupational medical surveillance for ferry system workers (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office solicited disability medical record review and independent medical examination services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach solicited a surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit program for city employees (HR26753, due October 7, 2026); Collier County Commissioners solicited pharmacy benefit management services (RFP 25-8414, originally due April 9, 2026); the County of Santa Clara Health System solicited temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026); and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth (071626BNM, due September 25, 2026). These represent routine public-sector healthcare administration and staff augmentation rather than surgical procedures, and the code's assignment appears to be a data-quality issue rather than a signal of actual procurement demand under the code's stated definition.
