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 047Y3ZZ

UNSPSC 85515137 Dilation of lower artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevance to state and local procurement activity based on recent opportunities. The code describes a specific interventional medical procedure, yet the recent solicitations posted under this code in state and local government procurement databases comprise healthcare management and administrative services—inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care platforms, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction—none of which involve percutaneous arterial dilation procedures or the interventional cardiology services the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the underlying procurement databases or that this code is used inconsistently by issuing bodies to capture a broader range of health-care-related contracting activity than the code's formal definition reflects.

The issuing bodies represented include county governments (Muscogee County, Collier County, and Monroe County in Florida; San Mateo County in California) and a municipal fire department (Santa Monica, California), with the bulk of activity concentrated in Florida and Georgia. Representative recent opportunities include RFP No. 26-0008 from Columbus Consolidated Government's Finance Department (posted April 15, 2026, due May 15, 2026) for inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison under an annual contract with two-year initial term; RFP 25-8414 from Collier County Procurement Services (posted April 9, 2026, due April 9, 2026) for pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 7,200 covered members with historical annual spending near $8.7 million; and an RFP from Monroe County (posted March 14, 2026, due April 16, 2026) for virtual primary and urgent care services for approximately 2,300 county members. Because the code does not accurately reflect the actual scope of work being solicited under it, this category presents limited utility for business development targeting true interventional vascular procedures in state and local procurement.
