UNSPSC 85516158: Occlusion of left posterior tibial artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of left posterior tibial artery with intraluminal device, 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 04LS4DZ

UNSPSC 85516158 Occlusion of left posterior tibial artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with the recent state and local solicitation activity recorded against it. The code's nominal scope describes a specific clinical procedure—endovascular occlusion of a named arterial segment—yet the six recent opportunities posted under this code encompass independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-outs for Centers of Excellence networks, occupational medical surveillance, specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical specialties. None of these solicitations directly procure the arterial occlusion procedure or related devices; the mismatch indicates either a cataloging error in how opportunities were tagged to this code or a systematic divergence between code definition and buyer classification practice.

The recent activity does show issuing bodies spanning state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries), county health systems and government bodies (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Santa Clara County Health System, Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and city pension boards and municipal employers (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). Geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations due October 16, 2026, the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance due October 9, 2026 with a pre-bid conference August 31, 2026, and the County of Santa Clara Health System multiple-award pool for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026. Given the substantial mismatch between code nomenclature and actual procurement activity, this code should be treated as unreliable for targeting endovascular device or procedural work in state and local markets.
