UNSPSC 85505174: Dilation of left ulnar artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of left ulnar artery with intraluminal device, 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 037A4DZ

UNSPSC 85505174 Dilation of left ulnar artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that reflects a specific clinical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under it do not align with that medical intervention. Instead, the code shows activity under occupational and employee health management services, independent medical evaluations for disability benefit determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-outs for municipal employee plans, and temporary health professional staffing. The issuing bodies are diverse public employers — city retirement offices, state transportation departments, county health systems, county human resources divisions, and county juvenile justice agencies — purchasing medical support services to manage employee health programs, benefit eligibility, and healthcare delivery in detention settings rather than performing the arterial intervention the code nominally describes.

Recent opportunities span Arizona, Washington, California, and Florida. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years and a response date of October 16, 2026; the Washington State Department of Transportation requested proposals for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations with a pre-bid conference held August 31, 2026 and proposals due October 9, 2026; the County of Santa Clara Health System solicited a non-exclusive qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories with proposals due October 7, 2026; and the City of Long Beach requested proposals for a surgical procedure carve-out benefit program for approximately 3,800 enrolled employees and retirees, with questions due September 9, 2026 and proposals due October 7, 2026. The code shows little relevant recent activity relative to its nominal scope — the UNSPSC categorization appears misaligned with the actual services being procured.
