UNSPSC 85504839: Destruction of left axillary artery, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of left 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 03563ZZ

UNSPSC 85504839 Destruction of left axillary artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local procurement opportunities currently posted under it. The recent solicitations tagged to this code reflect general healthcare administration and occupational health services—medical record summarization for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit network management, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing—none of which involve arterial destruction or percutaneous vascular procedures. The code's nominal scope suggests a specific clinical intervention, but the posted opportunities instead address institutional health program contracting, staffing, and benefits administration. This mismatch indicates either a data coding error in the source system or a category misclassification that has routed unrelated healthcare procurements under an anatomically specific procedure code.

The issuing bodies using this code span state health authorities (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries), county health systems (County of Santa Clara Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners), municipalities (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), and regional health consortia. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026 (covering baseline, periodic, and exit medical examinations across 14 ferry system locations), the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing due October 7, 2026, and the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP due October 16, 2026 for disability benefit determinations. Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no clear concentration. Because the code's stated scope does not match the work actually being solicited, pursuit decisions should treat this code as low-signal for vascular intervention contracting and instead flag the source's coding practices as unreliable for future category analysis.
