About UNSPSC 85515022

UNSPSC 85515022, Removal of intraluminal device from lower artery, open approach, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six opportunities tagged with this code in recent months span independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance, specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve removal of intraluminal devices or vascular surgical procedures. The code's nominal scope — a specific arterial intervention procedure — does not align with the work actually being solicited under it by state and local buyers.

The issuing bodies across these misaligned opportunities include municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), city benefits procurement (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice departments (Harris County), county human resources divisions (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and county health systems (County of Santa Clara). Geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance across ferry locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System non-exclusive multiple-award pool for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). State and local procurement systems appear to have applied this clinical procedure code as a catch-all for medical services generally, creating a taxonomy mismatch that renders the code a poor targeting vehicle for pursuing opportunities in this space.
