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 03N70ZZ

UNSPSC 85504048 Release right brachial artery, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a surgical procedure on the brachial artery, yet the five most recent opportunities posted under this code span correctional inmate medical and pharmacy services, county pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and municipal fire department medical direction — none of which involve surgical vascular procedures.

The mismatch between the code's clinical taxonomy name and the actual procurement activity suggests either tagging errors in the source data or a fundamental misclassification. State and local health departments, correctional authorities, and municipal agencies are posting complex RFPs for ongoing clinical and administrative healthcare services — medical intake and chronic care management at Muscogee County Prison (Columbus Consolidated Government, RFP 26-0008, due May 15, 2026), pharmacy benefits administration across Collier County's 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members (RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026), virtual primary and urgent care for Monroe County's 2,300 members (RFP 628, due April 16, 2026), behavioral health peer support through San Mateo County (RFP 2025-007, $580,000 over three years), and medical direction for the Santa Monica Fire Department. The geographic activity spans Florida, Georgia, and California, but these opportunities bear no substantive relationship to brachial artery surgical technique. Vendors evaluating this code should treat it as inactive for practical state and local procurement purposes and verify code assignment before pursuing any opportunity tagged to this Commodity.
