UNSPSC 85515567 Dilation of left posterior tibial artery, open approach is a Commodity code that sits within the medical and healthcare services taxonomy but shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific vascular surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it reflect a mismatch: they include disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, surgical center-of-excellence carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these activities involve dilation of a posterior tibial artery or procedural interventions of that clinical specificity. The opportunities instead span administrative healthcare contracting, staffing, and benefit plan management — operational functions that fall outside the code's procedural scope.

Issuing bodies posting under this code include county health systems and retirement offices (Collier County, Santa Clara County Health System, Phoenix Retirement Office), city personnel departments (Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county probation departments (Harris County), and county procurement offices acting on behalf of public employee benefit consortiums. Geographic activity centers on California (Santa Clara, Long Beach), Arizona (Phoenix), Washington (Tacoma, Seattle, and WSF locations statewide), Florida (Collier County, Miami-Dade areas), and Texas (Harris County). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's request for independent medical evaluation services (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) covering approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications for public safety personnel, the County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award temporary health professional staffing pool (RFP RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) across 13 ancillary clinical categories, and the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance services for ferry system workers across 14 locations (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026). The code does not support procurement activity aligned with its stated procedural definition and warrants deprioritization in pursuit planning.
