This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of left ulnar artery with intraluminal device, open 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 037A0DZ

UNSPSC 85504174 Dilation of left ulnar artery with intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that does not match the work actually being solicited by state and local governments in recent opportunities. The code's title references a specific clinical procedure — percutaneous vascular intervention — yet the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under it span occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, surgical care networks, and youth detention healthcare services. These opportunities do not involve arterial dilation procedures or intraluminal devices; they represent administrative, staffing, and programmatic healthcare contracting rather than procedural interventions. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing offices or that this code is being applied to healthcare services procurement more broadly without specificity to the commodity's actual scope.

The recent opportunities reflect activity by county health systems, municipal retirement boards, state transportation agencies, and county probation departments across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSF medical surveillance, RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) and Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Pharmacy Benefit Management Services, RFP 25-8414) represent the only solicitations with clear execution timelines and defined contract economics — a two-year WSF contract with cost-based evaluation and a three-year Collier County PBM agreement covering approximately $8.7 million in annual pharmacy spend. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluation services, RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing, RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) show active demand for clinical advisory and flex staffing, while Harris County Juvenile Probation's RFI signals early-stage market research rather than imminent procurement. The code shows little relevant recent activity and warrants clarification with issuing offices before pursuit strategy development.
