UNSPSC 85515852: Extirpation of matter from right foot artery, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right foot 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 04CV3ZZ

UNSPSC 85515852 Extirpation of matter from right foot artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's clinical specificity — a narrowly defined vascular surgical procedure — does not align with the scope of the recent opportunities posted under this code classification, which span occupational health surveillance, pension disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit programs for employee health plans. State and local bodies do not procure individual vascular procedures as a line item; rather, they contract for healthcare services, medical administration, or staffing frameworks that may encompass such procedures as part of a broader care delivery or benefit management scope. The misdating or miscoding of these opportunities suggests either a data quality issue in the underlying procurement database or misapplication of the UNSPSC code by the issuing bodies during notice posting.

The issuing bodies soliciting under this code include county human resources departments and county health systems (Collier County, Santa Clara County Health System), city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), city employee benefits functions (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), and a county juvenile probation department (Harris County). Recent activity appears in Arizona (Phoenix retirement services RFP due October 16, 2026), California (Long Beach surgical carve-out RFP due October 7, 2026; Santa Clara temporary staffing RFP due October 7, 2026), Washington (WSDOT occupational surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026), Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefit management RFP closed April 9, 2026), and Texas (Harris County juvenile probation services RFI due September 25, 2026). None of these opportunities genuinely targets the vascular procedure named in the code. The mismatch suggests that business development professionals should verify the actual commodity or service code scope directly with issuing bodies rather than relying on this code classification for procurement strategy.
