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 037D44Z

UNSPSC 85505166 Dilation of right hand artery with drug-eluting intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The code nominally describes a specific interventional cardiology procedure, but the recent solicitations tagged to this code instead cover occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical center-of-excellence networks, and emergency medical services for detained youth. These opportunities span public health administration, employee health plans, and workforce staffing rather than the invasive cardiovascular procedure the code name indicates, suggesting either systematic miscoding across jurisdictions or a data structure in which this code is being used as a catch-all for healthcare services procurement outside its intended scope.

The issuing bodies soliciting under this code include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of the Washington State Ferries), county health systems and human services agencies (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and city retirement and benefits offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). Recent opportunities posted between July and September 2026 include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP with an October 9, 2026 response deadline, the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP due October 16, 2026 with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years, the City of Long Beach's surgical benefit carve-out RFP due October 7, 2026, and the County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing pool RFP due October 7, 2026. Geographic activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. Given the mismatch between the code's clinical procedure name and the healthcare administration and staffing work actually being solicited, vendors evaluating this code should verify whether their service lines genuinely align with the intended scope or whether the tagging reflects systematic miscoding by issuing offices.
