UNSPSC 85516160: Occlusion of right posterior tibial artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of right posterior tibial 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 04LR4ZZ

UNSPSC 85516160 Occlusion of right posterior tibial artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The source contains six recent opportunities, none of which involve vascular intervention procedures or the medical intervention described in the code's nominal scope. Instead, the opportunities span independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary ancillary health professional staffing — all administrative, occupational health, or benefits-management functions rather than the specific arterial occlusion procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch between code classification and actual work suggests the code shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement.

The issuing bodies in the source include city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal benefits departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice authorities (Harris County), county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System), and county human resources divisions (Collier County). Geographic spread covers Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations (due October 9, 2026), and the Santa Clara County Health System non-exclusive multiple-award vehicle for temporary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026). The absence of procurement activity aligned with the code's stated procedural focus — endoscopic vascular intervention — indicates this classification warrants review for taxonomy alignment with actual state and local buying patterns.
