UNSPSC 85515836: Insertion of infusion device into left posterior tibial artery, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of infusion device into left posterior tibial artery, 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 04HS33Z

UNSPSC 85515836 Insertion of infusion device into left posterior tibial artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the state and local procurement activity currently tagged under it. The recent solicitations posted under this code—independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, specialty healthcare services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—span administrative healthcare services, occupational health compliance, and workforce staffing functions. None involve the specific cardiovascular or vascular interventional procedure the code nominally describes. State and local procurement offices are tagging these diverse health-system and benefits-administration activities with a Commodity code designed for a single clinical procedure, suggesting a taxonomy alignment problem rather than genuine demand for infusion-device insertion services under this code.

Issuing bodies include city pension boards (City of Phoenix), municipal health benefits administrators (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county detention authorities (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and county benefits consortia (Collier County Board of County Commissioners). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services with a $750,000 five-year term and October 16, 2026 response deadline; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFQ for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations with October 9, 2026 proposals due and cost-based evaluation weighting 40 percent price and 60 percent capability; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories with October 7, 2026 proposals due. The code shows no recent relevant activity for the vascular procedure it nominally names.
