UNSPSC 85516057: Supplement left femoral artery with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left femoral artery with autologous tissue 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 04UL47Z

UNSPSC 85516057 Supplement left femoral artery with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no recent activity aligned with its procedural description in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope — a specific surgical technique for femoral artery supplementation — does not match the work actually being solicited under it by state and local issuing bodies.

The recent opportunities tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, independent medical evaluations for disability retirement determinations, and surgical benefit carve-out networks for municipal employees. None of these involve the vascular surgical procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either a data-tagging error or a fundamental misalignment between the code's procedural specificity and how procurement systems are applying it to broader health services contracting. State and local governments are actively soliciting medical services, health professional staffing, and employee benefits administration across Arizona, California, Washington, and Florida, but the procurement activity does not reflect procurement for the particular surgical intervention this code nominally covers.
