UNSPSC 85515876 "Drainage of left posterior tibial artery with drainage device, percutaneous approach" is a Commodity code tagged on state and local opportunities that bear no relationship to the code's procedural medical description. The recent opportunities posted under this code span employee health benefits administration, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve vascular drainage procedures or interventional cardiology. The code appears to have been misapplied in procurement records, likely as a data-entry error or system artifact, rather than reflecting a coherent procurement category. State and local governments do purchase medical services, occupational health programs, and health benefits administration, but not under this code's actual clinical scope.

The geographic footprint of the six recent opportunities spans Arizona, California, Washington State, Texas, and Florida. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the Washington State Department of Transportation (ferries division), Collier County (Florida), the County of Santa Clara Health System (California), the City of Long Beach (California), and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas) are the issuing bodies. Recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix's independent medical evaluation services RFP due October 16, 2026 ($750,000 over five years for disability benefit medical record summaries and physician examinations); Washington State Ferries' occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026 (baseline and periodic examinations across 14 Washington ferry locations); the City of Long Beach's surgical Center of Excellence carve-out proposal RFP due October 7, 2026 (health plan member steerage); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing qualification pool due October 7, 2026 (non-exclusive multiple award for ancillary clinical categories). The code itself does not accurately reflect the work being solicited and should not be relied upon for vendor targeting.
