UNSPSC 85504066: Occlusion of right ulnar artery, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of right ulnar 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 03L90ZZ

UNSPSC 85504066 Occlusion of right ulnar artery, open approach is a Commodity code that appears in state and local procurement systems but does not align with the work actually being solicited in recent opportunities. The code nominally refers to a specific surgical procedure for vascular occlusion, yet the six recent state and local opportunities tagged to it span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical care network management, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which involve arterial occlusion procedures or match the procedure code's clinical scope. This mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding of medical benefits and healthcare administration services under an inapplicable clinical procedure code, or incomplete alignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how state and local procurement offices actually classify healthcare procurement.

The issuing bodies are health systems and county agencies: Washington State Department of Transportation (for occupational medical surveillance across state ferry operations), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (for disability medical evaluations), the City of Long Beach (for surgical care network management), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (for emergency and specialty medical services), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (for pharmacy benefit management), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (for temporary health professional staffing). Recent opportunities span Washington, Arizona, California, and Florida, with response dates from September 25 through October 16, 2026. No current activity supports pursuing this code as coded; vendors should verify the actual service classification before submission.
