This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of right 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 045R3ZZ

UNSPSC 85515934 Destruction of right posterior tibial artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its clinical-procedure nomenclature and the actual scope of work state and local governments are soliciting under this code. Recent opportunities posted under this code do not involve vascular surgery or percutaneous arterial interventions; instead, issuing bodies are requesting medical administration, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing services. The code's nominal title reflects a specific surgical procedure, but the recent contract opportunities reveal that state and local agencies are using this code tag to solicit healthcare management, administrative medical services, and staffing support rather than the clinical procedure the code name describes.

Recent activity appears across multiple state and local jurisdictions including Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara Health System), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries, RFP for occupational medical surveillance due October 9, 2026), Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, RFI for specialty and emergency medical services due September 25, 2026), and Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners, RFP for pharmacy benefit management services). The issuing bodies span city retirement offices, county health systems and human services agencies, state transportation departments, and municipal workforce administrators. Given the persistent disconnect between the code's surgical nomenclature and the administrative and staffing services actually being procured, this code does not represent a meaningful procurement category for vendors pursuing clinical supply, equipment, or services aligned with vascular procedures.
