UNSPSC 85516032: Supplement left foot artery with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left foot artery with synthetic substitute, 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 04UW4JZ

UNSPSC 85516032, Supplement left foot artery with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code address occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension boards, specialty surgical carve-out benefits, and youth detention healthcare services—none of which involve vascular surgical procedures or implantable medical devices. The code's nominal scope (a specific percutaneous endoscopic vascular surgery procedure) does not align with the administrative health services, benefits administration, and personnel staffing work actually being solicited by state and local issuers under this classification.

The mismatch suggests either a coding error in the state and local procurement system's tagging or a systematic misalignment between UNSPSC medical procedure codes and how public sector health agencies actually procure health services. State and local governments soliciting under this code are primarily county health systems, city retirement offices, and state transportation departments purchasing managed healthcare services, benefits administration, and clinical staffing—not performing or procuring the specific surgical procedure the code describes. No opportunities in the recent record show procurement of vascular devices, surgical implants, or procedure-specific supplies or services.
