UNSPSC 85515821: Occlusion of left popliteal artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of left popliteal artery with extraluminal 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 04LN3CZ

UNSPSC 85515821 Occlusion of left popliteal artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The code's clinical procedure name describes a specific vascular surgical intervention, yet the most recent solicitations tagged to this code solicit medical evaluation, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out benefit programs, temporary health professional staffing, and detention-facility medical services — none of which involve percutaneous arterial occlusion devices or their placement. The mismatch suggests either a data classification error in the source system or that state and local procurement offices are systematically misapplying this code to health-services work that falls outside its intended scope.

The recent opportunities show issuing-body activity across state health and transportation agencies, counties, and municipalities: the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers across 14 locations), the City of Phoenix (disability medical record review and independent medical examinations for pension boards), Collier County (pharmacy benefit management), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth), the City of Long Beach (surgical procedure carve-out benefit management), and Santa Clara County Health System (temporary ancillary health professional staffing). No legitimate procurement signals emerge from this code as currently tagged because the opportunities do not involve vascular devices or arterial occlusion procedures; the code shows little relevant recent activity for vendors specializing in interventional vascular products or services.
