UNSPSC 85515011: Restriction of lower artery with extraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of lower artery with extraluminal device, open 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 04VY0CZ

UNSPSC 85515011 Restriction of lower artery with extraluminal device, open approach, Commodity, shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The UNSPSC code nominally describes a specific medical procedure involving arterial restriction, yet the six recent opportunities tagged under it span independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve restriction of lower artery procedures. The disconnect suggests this Commodity code is either misapplied by issuing bodies to broader healthcare procurement or has drifted from its procedural definition into general medical services taxonomy. State and local governments buying under this code include city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal employee benefits administrators (Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile detention systems (Harris County), county health systems (Santa Clara), and county board of commissioners procurement divisions (Collier County).

Geographic coverage spans California, Florida, Texas, Washington, and Arizona, with recent activity concentrated in the West and distributed across municipal, county, and state jurisdictions. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) covering disability benefit determinations for approximately 75 annual applications with a five-year contract ceiling of $750,000; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) requiring occupational medicine board certification and service delivery across 14 ferry system locations; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) establishing a qualified vendor pool across 13 ancillary health professional categories without guaranteed work volume. The code exhibits little recent procurement activity in its stated procedural scope.
