This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left radial artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open 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 03RC0KZ

UNSPSC 85504007 Replacement of left radial artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows a mismatch between its nominal scope and actual state and local procurement activity. The code's medical procedure descriptor does not align with the recent state and local solicitations tagged under it. The opportunities in the recent block—independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—represent administrative health services, benefits management, and staffing procurement rather than surgical implant or vascular repair procedures. These solicitations address employee and public health program administration, occupational health compliance, and clinical staffing coordination, none of which map to the replacement of arterial tissue.

State and local buyers posting under this code over the past three months include municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), cities (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county probation systems (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), county health systems (County of Santa Clara, Collier County), and regional government health authorities. Geographic activity is scattered across Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) to support disability pension determinations, the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminal and vessel locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026 with a pre-bid conference scheduled for August 31), and the County of Santa Clara's non-exclusive multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code appears to carry substantial administrative and occupational health procurement activity, though the tagged code itself does not reflect the actual work being bought.
