UNSPSC 85504765: Excision of left ulnar artery, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of 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 03BA3ZZ

UNSPSC 85504765 Excision of left ulnar artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity posted under it. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure, but the opportunities tagged to this code span prison medical and pharmacy services, county employee pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care services for county members, peer support services for mental health workers, and fire department medical director oversight—none of which involve the specific surgical procedure named in the code.

The mismatch between the code's technical surgical name and the actual work being solicited suggests either a tagging error in the source system or a fundamental misalignment in how this code is being used by state and local procurement offices. No recent opportunities in the block represent the surgical service the code nominally describes. The opportunities that are present—such as the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP for inmate medical and pharmacy services (due May 15, 2026), Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services (due April 9, 2026), Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services (due April 16, 2026), San Mateo County's MHSA peer support pilot (due July 2, 2025), and Santa Monica Fire Department's RFP for a medical director (due October 16, 2025)—are administratively and clinically distinct from ulnar artery excision. This code shows little decision-relevant recent activity for vendors pursuing state and local work in surgical services or the specific procedure named.
