UNSPSC 85504636 Supplement right hand artery with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually procuring under this code designation. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span occupational health surveillance, pension disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs, emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and medical record summary services — none of which involves the specific surgical procedure named in the code. The issuing bodies are primarily municipal retirement offices, county health systems, county probation departments, county commissioners' offices, and state transportation agencies. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in how these opportunities were tagged or a fundamental divergence between the code's nominal scope and current procurement practice under it.

Recent opportunities show activity across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026) worth $750,000 over five years; the City of Long Beach posted an RFP for surgical benefit carve-out programs (due October 7, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (due October 9, 2026) with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026; Collier County posted an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth; and Santa Clara Health System posted a solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). The code shows no cohesion to its stated procedure name and warrants review for recategorization.
