UNSPSC 85515817: Occlusion of right anterior tibial artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of right anterior tibial artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous 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 04LP3DZ

UNSPSC 85515817 Occlusion of right anterior tibial artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not match the work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement activity. The code's technical nomenclature describes a specific vascular intervention procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged to it span independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, youth detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involves tibial artery occlusion or the device-based intervention the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either persistent miscoding in the state and local procurement systems or use of this code as a catchall for health and human services contracting outside its intended clinical scope. The work actually being bought under this code in recent postings centers on medical administration, benefit program management, occupational health compliance, and provider network services rather than any single clinical procedure.

Recent activity spans diverse issuing bodies including city retirement offices, municipal workforce benefits administrators, state transportation departments, county juvenile justice systems, county health consortia, and county health systems across Arizona, California, Washington, and Florida. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit determinations (due October 16, 2026, maximum contract value $750,000 over five years); the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out program management through Centers of Excellence (due October 7, 2026, selection and negotiation targeted for January–March 2027 with go-live April 1, 2027); the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026, two-year term with options to extend up to five additional one-year terms); and Collier County Board of County Commissioners' RFP for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees and 4,800 covered members (historical pharmacy spending approximately $8.7 million annually, initial three-year term effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2028, with two optional one-year renewal periods). The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned to its stated clinical procedure scope.
