UNSPSC 85516326: Dilation of left femoral artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of left femoral artery with intraluminal 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 047L4DZ

UNSPSC 85516326 Dilation of left femoral artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific vascular surgical procedure — left femoral artery dilation with an intraluminal device performed percutaneously via endoscopic approach — yet the recent opportunities tagged under it cover unrelated services: independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, juvenile detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these procurements involve the femoral artery procedure or similar device-based interventional vascular work. The mismatch suggests either tagging error by the issuing bodies or a fundamental misalignment between the code's clinical scope and how state and local jurisdictions are categorizing health services procurement.

The recent opportunities show activity across Arizona, California, Washington, and Texas through diverse issuing bodies—city retirement offices, municipal benefits departments, state transportation agencies, county health systems, and county probation departments—but these represent general health services contracting rather than procurement of the specific vascular intervention named in the code. Without opportunities that actually solicit femoral artery dilation devices, related implantable hardware, or procedure-specific clinical services matched to this code, the UNSPSC 85516326 code does not present a clear or actionable procurement target in the current state and local market.
