UNSPSC 85505128: Extirpation of matter from right brachial artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right brachial artery, 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 03C74ZZ

UNSPSC 85505128 Extirpation of matter from right brachial artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) bears no alignment with recent state and local contracting activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure — removal of material from the right brachial artery via percutaneous endoscopic technique — yet the six recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical record review and independent medical evaluation, surgical benefit carve-out program management, pharmacy benefit administration, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these solicitations involve brachial artery procedures or related vascular interventions. The mismatch indicates either a systematic tagging error in the source data or a misalignment between the UNSPSC code's nominal scope and how state and local procurement offices are actually using it.

No recent state and local opportunities directly solicit vascular surgery, interventional radiology services, or percutaneous endoscopic arterial procedures under this code. The issuing bodies in the recent-opportunities block — the City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, and County of Santa Clara — are seeking administrative health services, benefit program management, staffing, and medical surveillance, not procedural services matching the code's description. Business development professionals evaluating this code should treat it as inactive for state and local procurement purposes and flag the data-quality issue to their procurement research team.
