UNSPSC 85504661: Reposition left hand artery, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition left hand artery, 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 03SF3ZZ

UNSPSC 85504661 Reposition left hand artery, percutaneous approach (Commodity) does not align with the recent state and local contract activity recorded under this code. The code nominally describes a specific medical procedure — vascular repositioning — yet the six most-recent opportunities posted under it solicited occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these offerings involve the procedural intervention the code names. State and local procurement systems appear to have applied this code to a diverse set of administrative and occupational health services that fall outside its stated scope.

The geographic spread across recent postings includes Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington State, Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), with issuing bodies spanning municipal retirement offices, city human resources departments, county health systems, county probation departments, and state transportation agencies. The code shows no meaningful recent activity in its stated medical procedure domain; instead, it reflects either misclassification in state and local UNSPSC tagging or a fundamental mismatch between the code's definition and its current use. Business development professionals should verify the actual scope of any target opportunity under this code rather than relying on the code name alone.
