UNSPSC 85504103: Insertion of intraluminal device into right hand artery, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of intraluminal device into right hand 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 03HD0DZ

UNSPSC 85504103 Insertion of intraluminal device into right hand artery, open approach is a Commodity code with a stated scope covering a specific surgical procedure; however, recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code do not reflect procurement of intraluminal devices or vascular surgery services. Instead, the code shows activity in occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical care center-of-excellence networks — none of which align with the procedural device insertion the code nominally describes. The issuing bodies span state agencies, county governments, and cities, including the Washington State Department of Transportation (for occupational medical surveillance), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (for specialty and emergency medical services), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (for independent medical evaluation services), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (for pharmacy benefit management), the City of Long Beach (for surgical procedure carve-out benefit management), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (for temporary health professional staffing). This code displays a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and the actual procurement activity being tagged under it in state and local markets.

Recent solicitations span Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no clear concentration in any single jurisdiction. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, for disability benefit determinations across public safety pension boards), the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP for Washington State Ferries personnel (due October 9, 2026, across 14 ferry system locations), the City of Long Beach's RFP for a surgical procedure carve-out benefit program (due October 7, 2026, covering knee, hip, orthopedic, shoulder, spine, heart, weight loss, and oncology procedures), and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services (covering approximately 2,400 active employees and 4,800 covered members). The code shows little relevant recent activity for the device and surgical procedure insertion services its name suggests; pursuit under this code for vascular surgery or device supply should proceed with caution given the taxonomy mismatch.
