This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of right peroneal artery, 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 04LT4ZZ

UNSPSC 85513624, Occlusion of right peroneal artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and actual state and local procurement activity. The code's clinical designation describes a specific vascular surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged to it reflect state and local government demand for occupational health surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluation, employee health plan carve-outs, youth detention healthcare services, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the procedure named in the code. The issuing bodies include county commissioners, city retirement offices, state transportation departments, county juvenile justice systems, and county health systems, but their actual needs fall outside vascular surgery or any related clinical procedure line. This code appears to have been assigned to opportunities for administrative or taxonomic reasons unrelated to the work being procured.

The recent opportunities show little relevant activity for the code's stated scope. The Washington State Department of Transportation solicited occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers (RFP 20260825, due October 9, 2026); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office requested disability medical record summaries and examination scheduling for pension applicants (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach pursued a surgical benefit carve-out for employee health plans (HR26753, due October 7, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System established a vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing in multiple ancillary categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). These opportunities span Arizona, California, and Washington, but none involve vascular procedures or the clinical work the commodity code describes. The systematic mismatch between code and opportunity suggests either a data-entry error in the source records or a broader indexing issue within the procurement system. Firms pursuing state and local contracts in employee benefits, occupational health, or temporary clinical staffing should not rely on this code for opportunity identification.
