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 03Q60ZZ

UNSPSC 85504039 Repair left axillary artery, open approach is a Commodity code that maps poorly to state and local procurement activity; the recent opportunities tagged with this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve surgical repair of blood vessels. The code's nominal scope (surgical vascular intervention) does not match the actual work being solicited under it in the state and local marketplace. State and local procurement offices appear to have misapplied this code to broader healthcare services contracting rather than surgical procedures. No recent opportunities reflect the code's intended commodity scope.

The issuing bodies in the tagged opportunities span county correctional systems (Muscogee County, Georgia), county human resources and health plan administration (Collier County, Florida), county employee health services (Monroe County, Florida), county behavioral health systems (San Mateo County, California), and municipal fire departments (Santa Monica, California). The geographic spread includes Georgia, Florida, and California. Representative recent opportunities include the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP 26-0008 (posted April 15, 2026, due May 15, 2026) for inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison, covering medical intake, chronic care, pharmacy, and dental services for approximately 576 offenders; Collier County Board of County Commissioners' RFP 25-8414 (posted April 9, 2026, due April 9, 2026) for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual spending of $8.7 million; and Monroe County's RFP628 (posted March 14, 2026, due April 16, 2026) for virtual primary care and 24/7 urgent care services for approximately 2,300 county members. Because this code's actual procurement activity does not align with its surgical scope, pursuit should be informed by the actual service lines being bought — healthcare administration, pharmacy benefit management, and employee health services — rather than the code's literal definition.
