This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of left anterior tibial artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach.

UNSPSC 85516313, Dilation of left anterior tibial artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally designates a specific vascular surgical procedure; however, the recent opportunities tagged under this code do not involve vascular interventions or percutaneous endoscopic procedures. Instead, the tagged solicitations cover independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, surgical carve-out benefit programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the code's stated scope. The mismatch between the code designation and the work actually being solicited suggests either a classification error in the issuing bodies' tagging or that this code does not currently reflect active state and local procurement demand for the procedure it nominally describes.

State and local procurement under this code identifier is driven by counties and cities managing employee health benefits, public safety pension systems, and detention healthcare, rather than acute vascular surgical services. Recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-outs (due October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (due October 9, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department's RFI for hospital and specialty services (due September 25, 2026), and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management (deadline April 9, 2026). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. The absence of vascular intervention procurement under this code's designation indicates either dormant activity or persistent misclassification; vendors should verify code assignment before pursuing opportunities tagged under this commodity.
