UNSPSC 85503904 Restriction of right hand artery, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's medical-procedure nomenclature—a specific vascular surgical intervention—does not match the scope of the six recent state and local opportunities tagged under it. Those opportunities span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which describe a vascular surgical procedure, and none of which involve restricting the right hand artery via open approach. State and local procurement offices appear to have applied this code to healthcare services and staffing broadly rather than to a discrete surgical intervention, indicating either a systematic miscoding or a divergence between the code's intended scope and its current application in practice.

No recent state and local opportunities actually soliciting restriction of right hand artery surgical services appear in the source. The six tagged opportunities originate from the City of Phoenix (independent medical evaluations for pension boards), the City of Long Beach (surgical benefit carve-out program management), Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary ancillary health professional staffing). The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. This code should be treated as showing no relevant recent activity; procurement professionals should verify UNSPSC coding with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities tagged under it.
