UNSPSC 85504037: Repair left brachial artery, 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 03Q80ZZ

UNSPSC 85504037 Repair left brachial artery, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows no alignment with that clinical scope. The code does not map to the healthcare services, medical benefits management, virtual care delivery, peer support, and fire department medical direction work appearing in current solicitations. The source shows mismatch between the code's stated description and actual buying patterns.

State and local governments have posted five recent opportunities tagged to this code between February and April 2026—Columbus Consolidated Government (Georgia) seeking inmate medical and pharmacy services for Muscogee County Prison (RFP due May 15, 2026); Collier County, Florida requesting Pharmacy Benefit Management Services (RFP due April 9, 2026); Monroe County, Florida procuring Virtual Primary & Urgent Care Services (RFP due April 16, 2026); San Mateo County, California issuing an MHSA Innovation pilot for Peer Support for Peer Workers (proposal deadline July 2, 2025); and Santa Monica Fire Department seeking a Fire Department Medical Director (RFP due October 16, 2025). The work spans county human resources health benefits administration, county correctional healthcare, county virtual primary care platforms, county behavioral health peer support, and municipal emergency medical services oversight—none of which involves surgical repair of a brachial artery. The code appears to be incorrectly assigned to these solicitations, suggesting either a data-entry error in the procurement system or a taxonomy misalignment. Firms evaluating this code for state and local pursuit should verify accurate code assignment before committing resources, as the posted opportunities under UNSPSC 85504037 do not reflect the code's clinical definition.
