UNSPSC 85515440 Repair right femoral artery, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with state and local government procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code address occupational medical surveillance, pension disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention medical services — none of which involve vascular surgical repair. State and local issuing bodies do not appear to use this code to procure the orthopedic or vascular surgical procedures its name suggests. The mismatch indicates either a data classification error in the source records or inconsistent code application at the posting agencies.

No recent state and local solicitations reflect actual demand for open femoral artery repair services under this code. The opportunities appearing in the source material are administrative health services, benefit program management, and staffing contracts unrelated to surgical procedure codes. A vendor evaluating this code should clarify the classification with relevant procurement offices before pursuing active opportunities.
