UNSPSC 85516044: Supplement left anterior tibial artery with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left anterior tibial 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 04UQ4JZ

UNSPSC 85516044 Supplement left anterior tibial artery with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not match the work actually being solicited in recent state and local procurement opportunities. The code nominally describes a specific vascular surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which involve anterior tibial artery procedures or vascular surgery services. The mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in the procurement system or a systematic misclassification of healthcare services under this surgical procedure code.

The recent opportunities show no consistent issuing-body concentration or geographic pattern aligned with the code's nominal scope. The opportunities span the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation (Washington), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Because the code shows no meaningful activity in actual vascular procedure procurement, business development professionals should treat this code as inactive or misclassified for state and local contracting purposes.
