This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to repair left external carotid artery, 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 03QN4ZZ

UNSPSC 85503306 Repair left external carotid artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities tagged under this code span medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefits carve-outs, disability medical evaluations, and youth detention healthcare services — none of which align with the specific surgical intervention the code nominates. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope (a defined vascular surgical procedure) and the actual work being solicited suggests either data-classification error at the source or that this code is not being used by state and local buyers to describe the work they actually procure.

State and local purchasing offices, counties, cities, and health systems issuing under this code in recent months have been soliciting broad administrative, staffing, and benefit-management services rather than specialized surgical interventions. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical evaluations, RFP RTMRFP26001, October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach (surgical benefits carve-out administration, RFP HR26753, October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance, RFP RFP20260825, October 9, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (specialty medical services for detained youth, RFI 071626BNM, September 25, 2026), Collier County (pharmacy benefit management, RFP 25-8414, April 9, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System (temporary health professional staffing qualification pool, RFSQHHSFY270052, October 7, 2026) represent the issuing-body range, spanning state departments, counties, cities, and health systems across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. The geographic spread and issuing-body diversity indicate that this code does not represent a focused procurement category; the disconnect between code definition and solicitation scope warrants clarification with the buying agencies before pursuing opportunities nominally tagged under it.
