This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of infusion device into right radial 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 03HB03Z

UNSPSC 85504108 Insertion of infusion device into right radial artery, open approach is a Commodity code that carries a medical procedure classification, yet the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under it bear no material relationship to the code's nominal scope. The source records show that state and local bodies are soliciting independent medical evaluation services, disability medical record review and summarization, occupational health surveillance, emergency and specialty medical care coordination for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve insertion of infusion devices or invasive vascular procedures. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in the procurement data or that the code has been repurposed in state and local taxonomic practice to capture a broader set of medical services delivery and evaluation activities outside its clinical procedure definition.

Recent activity is geographically dispersed across Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries), Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners). The issuing bodies are mixed: municipal retirement systems, city employee benefits offices, state transportation agencies, county probation departments, and county purchasing on behalf of health systems. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services (proposals due October 16, 2026, maximum contract value $750,000 over five years), the City of Long Beach RFP HR26753 for surgical procedure carve-out benefit program management (proposals due October 7, 2026), and the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations (proposals due October 9, 2026, with pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026). Without concrete mapping between the code's clinical procedure definition and what is actually being bought, the code shows little decision-relevant procurement activity for vendors selling infusion device insertion services or related clinical supplies.
