This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of left external iliac artery with drainage 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 049J40Z

UNSPSC 85513806 Drainage of left external iliac artery with drainage device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope — a highly specific surgical procedure — does not align with the work state and local governments are actually soliciting under this code classification. Recent opportunities tagged to this code encompass independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, specialty surgical networks, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve the specific vascular intervention the code names. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, county boards of commissioners, state transportation departments, county juvenile probation departments, and county health systems, representing a mix of municipal HR functions, county benefits administration, state occupational health programs, and public health delivery. This suggests the code may be applied as a catch-all classification for health services procurement that does not fit cleanly into other UNSPSC categories, rather than reflecting actual procurement of the coded procedure itself.

Geographic activity spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), with no clear concentration in any single state. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations (RTMRFP26001, proposals due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, proposals due October 9, 2026 with pre-bid August 31, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories including audiology, cardiology, radiology, and surgical services (RFSQHHSFY270052, proposals due October 7, 2026). The mismatch between the code's specificity and the breadth of health services actually being procured signals either miscoding by issuing agencies or systemic use of this code as a health services administrative classification where no more precise code applies.
