UNSPSC 85505012: Replacement of right radial artery with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right radial artery with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 03RB47Z

UNSPSC 85505012 Replacement of right radial artery with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure — vascular replacement using endoscopic technique — but the recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability retirement determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out networks, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these solicitations involve the vascular surgical procedure named in the code.

The source contains no recent state and local opportunities that actually procure replacement of right radial artery procedures or related surgical supplies, devices, or services aligned with the code's nominal scope. The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the diverse medical administration and staffing work posted under it suggests either a cataloging error in how these opportunities were tagged or a fundamental misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy and the issuing bodies' application of it. Firms pursuing vascular surgical services, devices, or implants should verify code classification independently rather than rely on this code's recent posting history.
