This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of drainage device 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 03PY30Z

UNSPSC 85503726 Removal of drainage device from upper artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that maps poorly to the recent state and local procurement activity indexed under it. The code nominally describes a specific interventional vascular procedure, yet the solicitations posted against this code cover independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, surgical benefit carve-outs, emergency medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve percutaneous arterial drainage device removal. This disconnect suggests the code is either misapplied by issuing offices or has been used as a catch-all for general medical services procurement without precision alignment to the taxonomy. State and local buyers posting under this code include municipal retirement systems (City of Phoenix), county health systems (Santa Clara, Harris County), city employee benefit offices (Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), and county commissioner procurement divisions (Collier County). The work being solicited ranges from disability medical record review and independent psychiatric examination coordination to large-scale pharmacy administration, occupational surveillance across ferry operations, and temporary clinical staffing pools.

Recent activity is concentrated in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP 26001 for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, maximum compensation $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026, pre-bid August 31, 2026, with cost accounting for 40 percent of evaluation scoring), the City of Long Beach's HR26753 surgical benefit carve-out RFP (due October 7, 2026, targeting Centers of Excellence networks for knee, hip, orthopedic, spine, heart, weight loss, and oncology procedures), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQHHSFY270052 qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026, non-exclusive, multiple-award vehicle with no guaranteed volume). The code shows recent activity but the nominal procurement taxonomy does not align with the actual medical services being bought.
