UNSPSC 85516011: Restriction of right posterior tibial artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of right posterior tibial artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic 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 04VR4DZ

UNSPSC 85516011 Restriction of right posterior tibial artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a surgical intervention, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show no alignment with that scope. The code shows little relevant activity matching its stated clinical descriptor. The most recent opportunities posted under this code—including independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—span health benefits administration, occupational medicine, public health service delivery, and clinical staffing, none of which involve restriction of a posterior tibial artery or related vascular procedures. This mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding by the issuing bodies or a disconnect between the UNSPSC taxonomy label and the work actually being bought under the code number.

The issuing bodies posting opportunities under this code include city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal health benefits procurement (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), county health systems and human resources divisions (Collier County Board of County Commissioners, County of Santa Clara Health System), spanning municipalities, counties, and state agencies across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026) covering disability determinations for 75 annual applications at a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits (due October 7, 2026) offering Centers of Excellence networks for knee, hip, spine, and oncology procedures to approximately 3,800 enrolled employees and retirees; and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (due October 9, 2026) providing baseline and periodic examinations across 14 ferry locations statewide. Given the absence of vascular surgical procurement under this code, business development professionals should verify coding accuracy with issuing bodies before committing pursuit resources.
