UNSPSC 85504660: Supplement right axillary artery with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right axillary artery with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous 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 03U537Z

UNSPSC 85504660 Supplement right axillary artery with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local procurement activity currently tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code address occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for youth in custody — none of which involve cardiovascular surgical procedures or tissue augmentation. The code appears to be a clinical procedure classification from a medical taxonomy that state and local procurement systems have incorrectly applied to administrative and service-delivery health contracts.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual recent solicitations suggests either a data-integration error in how opportunities were tagged to UNSPSC or a fundamental misalignment between this code's intended use in clinical settings and its application in state and local procurement systems. Recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluation services, RFP due October 16, 2026), Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (occupational medical surveillance, RFP due October 9, 2026), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management, RFP due April 9, 2026), the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing, RFP due October 7, 2026), and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (specialty and emergency medical services, RFI due September 25, 2026). No recent activity shows procurement of the specific surgical service or tissue substitute this code nominally describes.
