About UNSPSC 85516115

UNSPSC 85516115 Replacement of left anterior tibial artery with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope — a specific surgical procedure — does not align with recent state and local procurement activity posted under it. The code shows no recent opportunities for the procurement of the named arterial replacement procedure itself. Instead, the recent opportunities tagged to this code reflect medical examination, staffing, and benefit management services that fall outside the procedure's scope: independent disability medical evaluations, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit administration, specialty surgical networks, and temporary clinical staffing placements. This mismatch suggests either misclassification of opportunities at source or inconsistent code assignment practice among issuing bodies.

The issuing bodies posting under this code include city retirement systems (City of Phoenix), county health authorities (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Santa Clara County Health System), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), and municipal employee benefit administrators (City of Long Beach, Collier County). Recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations (due October 9, 2026), and the Santa Clara County Health System RFP establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing across 13 specialties (due October 7, 2026). Given the lack of alignment between the code's stated scope and actual procurement activity, this code warrants review for reclassification or recoding by state and local procurement offices before pursuit.
