This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to repair left popliteal artery, 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 04QN4ZZ

UNSPSC 85516137 Repair left popliteal artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its procedural-surgical scope and the state and local contract opportunities recorded under it. The recent opportunities tagged to this code reflect healthcare administration and management services — inmate medical and pharmacy programs, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary care platforms, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical director oversight — rather than vascular surgical repair procedures. State and local governments do not solicit for specific surgical interventions like popliteal artery repair through standard procurement channels; the code appears to have been applied incorrectly to these solicitations, or the tagging reflects a data classification error rather than procurement activity aligned with the code's nominal scope.

The issuing bodies across the recent opportunities include county corrections departments, county board of commissioners human resources and health benefits functions, county employee health plan administrators, county behavioral health departments, and municipal fire departments — a diverse mix of health and benefits-administering entities. The geographic spread includes Florida (Collier County, Monroe County), Georgia (Muscogee County), and California (San Mateo County), with one opportunity from Santa Monica, California. The code shows no genuine recent activity in surgical services procurement and should not be relied upon for targeting vascular-repair or orthopedic surgical opportunities in state and local government.
