UNSPSC 85516256 Drainage of right popliteal artery with drainage device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure performed on a single anatomical site; recent state and local opportunities posted under this code instead solicit health benefit plan administration, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, and emergency/specialty medical services for detained youth. None of these solicitations involve drainage procedures, percutaneous endoscopic interventions, or popliteal artery work.

This code shows no relevant recent activity for contractors seeking to provide vascular surgery, interventional radiology, or related clinical services to state and local governments. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being tagged suggests either a classification error in the procurement system or that the code is not actively used by state and local agencies for acquisition purposes. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for state and local procurement purposes and verify any opportunities posted under it against actual scope requirements before pursuing.
