UNSPSC 85503719: Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from upper artery, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from upper artery, percutaneous 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 03PY3KZ

UNSPSC 85503719 Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from upper artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local procurement opportunities posted under it. The recent solicitations—independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical carve-out benefit administration, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty care for youth in detention, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—involve no vascular intervention procedures, tissue substitutes, or percutaneous arterial work. The code appears to mislabel these opportunities in the state and local system; there is minimal recent activity genuinely related to the code's nominal scope of removing nonautologous vascular grafts or similar tissue substitutes via percutaneous approach.

The recent opportunities do show procurement activity across city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal health benefits administration (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), county benefits consortiums (Collier County), and county health systems (Santa Clara County), with response dates concentrated between September and October 2026. However, none of these solicitations involve the vascular procedure work the code is intended to describe. The mismatch between the code taxonomy and the actual work being bought suggests that either the code was incorrectly applied to these opportunities or the opportunities are erroneously included in this code's dataset. Business development professionals should treat this code as showing no relevant recent activity for vascular intervention services.
