This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right ulnar artery with autologous tissue substitute, open approach.

UNSPSC 85504018 Replacement of right ulnar artery with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal taxonomy—a specific surgical procedure—bears no relationship to actual state and local procurement activity under this code. The recent opportunities tagged with this code include independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, occupational health surveillance for ferry workers, pharmacy benefit management, specialty surgical networks for municipal employees, emergency medical services for detained youth, and temporary ancillary clinical staffing. These solicitations span health benefits administration, occupational medicine compliance, and workforce medical support rather than vascular surgical procedures. The code shows no relevant recent activity aligned with its stated scope.

The issuing bodies span multiple jurisdictions: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System. Geographic activity is distributed across Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) covering disability benefit applications for public safety personnel; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFQ for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminals (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026 with a pre-bid conference August 31, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award qualification solicitation for temporary ancillary clinical staffing across 13 health professional categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The mismatch between code definition and actual procurements suggests this code may be applied inconsistently across state and local systems or misattributed to health services administration work.
