UNSPSC 85513537 Replacement of left colic artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal medical procedure title and the actual state and local procurement activity posted under it. The recent opportunities tagged to this code do not involve vascular surgical interventions or tissue substitutes; instead, they span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical care centers of excellence networks, and emergency services for youth in custody. The code appears to capture a narrow clinical procedure descriptor that does not match the breadth of health services and benefits administration work state and local bodies are actually soliciting.

The issuing bodies include state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (County of Santa Clara Health System), county juvenile justice authorities (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), county human resources divisions (Collier County), and city benefits administrators (City of Long Beach). Recent activity concentrates in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with response dates spanning September through October 2026. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 ($750,000 maximum over five years); the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026; the County of Santa Clara Health System RFQ for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026; and the City of Long Beach RFP for surgical care centers of excellence carve-out benefits due October 7, 2026. The code's current use does not reflect meaningful procurement of the specific vascular surgical procedure it nominally describes.
