This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of right popliteal 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 047M4ZZ

UNSPSC 85516322 Dilation of right popliteal artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) shows no relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure performed on a blood vessel—does not match the recent opportunities posted under this code identifier, which span disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, youth detention healthcare services, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. These are administrative healthcare services, benefit plan management, and staffing procurement rather than surgical procedures. State and local procurement officers appear to have applied this code incorrectly to general healthcare and administrative services opportunities rather than to procurement of the specific arterial dilation procedure the code nominally describes.

The mismatch between code and solicitation scope suggests either systematic miscoding in the posting system or that this UNSPSC code is not routinely used for state and local government contracting in its intended meaning. The recent opportunities tagged under this code—City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluation for disability determinations, RFP, due Oct 16, 2026), City of Long Beach (surgical benefit carve-out program, RFP, due Oct 7, 2026), Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance, RFP, due Oct 9, 2026), Collier County (pharmacy benefit management, RFP, due Apr 9, 2026), and County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing, RFP, due Oct 7, 2026)—represent healthcare administration and workforce procurement across Arizona, California, and Washington, not surgical procedure procurement. Unless your firm pursues healthcare administration or staffing services broadly, pursuing opportunities under this code identifier carries significant search and qualification risk.
