UNSPSC 85501541, Dilation of left internal carotid artery with drug-eluting intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that describes a specific interventional cardiology procedure. The recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code do not reflect procurement of this procedure itself; instead, the opportunities solicited span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-outs for employee benefits, and emergency medical services for detained youth. The code appears misaligned with the work actually being bought. State and local governments do not procure specific clinical procedures as line-item commodities through standard RFP, RFQ, or IFB channels; they contract for medical services management, staffing, benefits administration, and provider networks. The issuing bodies in the recent opportunities include county health systems and county boards of commissioners, city retirement offices, and state transportation agencies—all using health services procurement vehicles rather than procedure-specific purchasing.

The geographic activity in the recent opportunities spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County). Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years) and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026). The code shows no relevant recent activity for the specific procedure named in the code's taxonomy.
