About UNSPSC 85505001

UNSPSC 85505001 Replacement of left hand artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little recent activity relevant to its nominal scope. The six most recent opportunities tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs, and emergency services for detained youth — none of which involve arterial replacement procedures or implantable vascular devices. The mismatch suggests either miscoding at the issuing agency or a taxonomy artifact; the code does not reflect what state and local governments are actually purchasing under this designation.

The recent opportunities originate from diverse issuing bodies including county health systems (Santa Clara, Harris, Collier), city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal human resources departments (Long Beach), and state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation). Geographic activity appears across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no concentration in any single jurisdiction. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance due October 9, 2026, and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFP for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026. Given the absence of coded procurement activity aligned with the code's stated definition, this code warrants close review before pursuing opportunities tagged to it.
