This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left femoral artery with synthetic substitute, open approach.

UNSPSC 85515426 Replacement of left femoral artery with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure on a single vascular structure, yet recent solicitations tagged under this code address occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefits management, disability medical evaluations, surgical carve-out networks, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve replacement of a left femoral artery. State and local procurement offices appear to be using this code as a catch-all category for health and medical services broadly rather than as a specific-procedure designation, or the tagging itself reflects inconsistent application across different issuing bodies.

The recent opportunities reveal activity among state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation, Ferries division), counties (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), with no single issuer appearing more than once in the recent window. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) addressing disability determinations for public safety personnel; the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence (HR26753, due October 7, 2026); and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFQ for occupational medical surveillance services across ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026). Geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. Because the code's nominal scope and actual procurement activity diverge significantly, this code shows little reliable signal for business development focused on the stated procedure category.
