UNSPSC 85504755: Extirpation of matter from left ulnar artery, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from left ulnar 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 03CA3ZZ

UNSPSC 85504755 "Extirpation of matter from left ulnar artery, percutaneous approach" is a Commodity code that does not reflect the scope of work actually being solicited in recent state and local opportunities posted under this designation. The recent opportunities instead document procurement of occupational health surveillance services, independent medical evaluation services for pension determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the vascular surgical procedure named in the code. This mismatch suggests either systematic mis-tagging in the source data or use of the code as a catch-all placeholder for health services procurement unrelated to the specific clinical intervention the code nominally describes. The code shows no relevant recent activity for state and local procurement professionals evaluating vascular surgery services or related medical device and supply procurement.

The recent opportunities themselves span diverse issuing bodies including city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal health departments and benefits divisions (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara Health System), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county probation departments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and county benefits administrations (Collier County), with activity concentrated in California, Arizona, Washington, Florida, and Texas. However, because these solicitations do not correspond to the stated code scope, no representative recent opportunity analysis by code intent is applicable.
