UNSPSC 85515580: Dilation of left popliteal artery with intraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of left popliteal artery with intraluminal device, open approach. 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 047N0DZ

UNSPSC 85515580 Dilation of left popliteal artery with intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that does not map to the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The code nominally describes a specific vascular surgical procedure, but the six recent opportunities posted under this code — from Phoenix, Long Beach, Washington State, Harris County, Collier County, and Santa Clara County — solicit medical evaluation services, health plan administration, occupational surveillance, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing. None of these opportunities involve popliteal artery dilation procedures or align with the code's stated scope. The mismatch suggests either systematic tagging error or code misclassification in the source system; the code shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity.

State and local buyers using this code do not appear to be purchasing the vascular surgical procedure it nominally describes. Prospective vendors evaluating whether to pursue opportunities under UNSPSC 85515580 should verify that opportunity descriptions align with their actual service or product scope before investing in bid preparation, as the current tagging pattern does not reliably signal related procurement demand.
