UNSPSC 85504024: Replacement of right brachial artery with autologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right brachial artery with autologous 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 03R707Z

UNSPSC 85504024 Replacement of right brachial artery with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure—does not align with the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it. The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 reflect medical administration, staffing, benefits management, and occupational health services rather than vascular surgical procedures. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office sought independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations; the City of Long Beach requested surgical procedure carve-out benefits management for its health plan; the Washington State Department of Transportation sought occupational medical surveillance; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth; Collier County sought pharmacy benefit management; and the County of Santa Clara Health System established a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories. None of these represent procurement of the arterial replacement procedure the code nominally describes.

The issuing bodies span state departments, county health systems, city retirement and employee benefits offices, and special-purpose authorities, with no geographic concentration evident. Washington State (occupational health), Florida (pharmacy management), California (temporary staffing, surgical benefits), Arizona (disability medical evaluations), and Texas (juvenile detention medical services) each appear once. The code shows minimal relevant recent activity for firms positioned to deliver vascular surgical procedures or related medical devices and supplies to state and local government. A business development professional evaluating this code should treat it as dormant for procurement purposes and investigate whether the tagging reflects a data-entry error or whether state and local governments categorize surgical procedures differently from federal taxonomy conventions.
