UNSPSC 85504728: Occlusion of right axillary artery, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of right axillary 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 03L53ZZ

UNSPSC 85504728 Occlusion of right axillary artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose nominal description does not align with actual state and local procurement activity under this classification. The recent opportunities tagged to this code reflect medical and health services contracting — independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, specialty emergency care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve vascular occlusion procedures or interventional radiology. This classification mismatch suggests either a data tagging error in the procurement system or mission creep in code assignment that has decoupled the UNSPSC number from its clinical meaning. The actual work being solicited spans occupational health administration, benefits program management, staffing placement, and medical record coordination rather than a specific surgical procedure.

State and local issuing bodies include county human resources and benefits departments (Collier County, City of Long Beach), municipal retirement systems (City of Phoenix), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (County of Santa Clara), county detention facilities (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and regional transit authorities. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services with a $750,000 five-year maximum (due October 16, 2026); Washington State Ferries' occupational medical surveillance RFP covering 14 statewide locations (due October 9, 2026); County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award vehicle for temporary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026); and the City of Long Beach's surgical benefit carve-out program RFP (due October 7, 2026). Geographic activity spans Arizona, Washington, California, Texas, and Florida. Given the code's procedural mismatch with actual solicitation content, opportunities under this code warrant verification against intended scope before pursuing.
