UNSPSC 85515869: Excision of left femoral artery, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of left femoral 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 04BL3ZZ

UNSPSC 85515869 Excision of left femoral artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific vascular surgical procedure—does not align with the state and local opportunities posted under this code. Recent solicitations tagged to this code reflect health plan administration, occupational medical surveillance, youth detention healthcare services, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing, none of which involve the surgical procedure named in the code itself. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the posting systems or a misalignment between the code's technical definition and how state and local procurement offices are applying it.

The recent opportunities under this code span municipal retirement boards, city employee health programs, state transportation departments, county juvenile probation systems, county health consortia, and county health systems—a broad issuing-body mix across Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, maximum contract value $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services (due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out programs (due October 7, 2026), Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services (due April 9, 2026, with historical annual spending of approximately $8.7 million), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's request for temporary health professional staffing qualifications (due October 7, 2026). The divergence between the code's stated scope and actual procurements makes this code unreliable for targeted business development in its nominal surgical specialty.
