UNSPSC 85505155 Drainage of right brachial artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that bears no meaningful relationship to the state and local procurement activity currently tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code reflect medical evaluation, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out program administration, temporary health professional staffing coordination, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve drainage procedures or vascular interventions. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical procedure requiring specialized medical-device and physician expertise, but state and local governments do not solicit this work through traditional procurement channels; instead, they contract for medical services administration, benefit program design, occupational health compliance, and staffing coordination that sit entirely outside the code's stated domain.

Recent activity shows a geographically scattered pattern across California, Arizona, Washington, Texas, and Florida, with issuing bodies spanning county human resources offices, city pension boards, state transportation departments, county health systems, and juvenile detention authorities. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026; the City of Long Beach posted an RFP for surgical benefit carve-out program administration due October 7, 2026; the Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFQ for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department posted an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services due September 25, 2026; Collier County Board of Commissioners posted an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services; and Santa Clara County Health System posted an RFQ for temporary health professional staffing. The code shows little relevant procurement activity and vendors pursuing work in medical administration, occupational health, or health benefit design should verify actual UNSPSC coding through pre-bid inquiry rather than rely on this classification.
