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 03V50ZZ

UNSPSC 85503928 Restriction of right axillary artery, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code reflect procurement of occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical care network management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which constitute restriction of a specific arterial vessel. The mismatch between the code's clinical scope and the work being solicited suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or that this code does not serve as a functional procurement category in state and local government. The issuing bodies include city pension boards (Phoenix), county health systems (Santa Clara, Harris County), state transportation departments (Washington), and counties (Long Beach, Collier County).

The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP (due October 16, 2026, maximum $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance services RFP (due October 9, 2026, pre-bid August 31), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing qualification vehicle (due October 7, 2026, multiple-award pool with no guaranteed work). Because the code's stated commodity definition does not correspond to the services actually being procured in the recent opportunities block, this code carries limited utility for business development targeting state and local medical or surgical contracting activity.
