UNSPSC 85516159: Occlusion of left posterior tibial artery with extraluminal 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 extraluminal 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 04LS4CZ

UNSPSC 85516159 Occlusion of left posterior tibial artery with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its clinical procedure nomenclature and actual state and local government procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency youth detention healthcare — none of which concern vascular occlusion procedures or interventional radiology. The mismatch suggests this code has been misapplied to general health services RFPs by issuing entities or third-party posting systems rather than representing a genuine procurement category for the specific procedure named.

The issuing bodies across these records include a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county government entities (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and city retirement offices (Phoenix), reflecting broad geographic spread across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) covering disability medical record summary and psychiatric examination coordination for approximately 75 annual applications at a $750,000 five-year maximum; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference scheduled August 31, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award RFQ for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). No recent opportunities actually solicit for the arterial occlusion procedure this code nominally describes, limiting the utility of this code for targeting genuine procurement interest in that clinical service line.
