UNSPSC 85516340: Destruction of right femoral artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of right femoral 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 045K4ZZ

UNSPSC 85516340 Destruction of right femoral artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it span disability medical evaluation services, surgery benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency youth detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve destruction of right femoral artery or percutaneous endoscopic approaches to vascular intervention. The mismatch between the code's clinical procedure name and the actual work being solicited suggests either a data classification error or a systemic tagging misalignment in the state and local procurement system.

State and local buyers appear to be using this code to flag healthcare services and program administration rather than specific procedural interventions. The geographic spread includes Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), but the connection between these opportunities and the code's nominal scope is unclear. Buyers evaluating this code should treat recent activity as unreliable for forecasting surgical-procedure procurement and instead flag the code as low-signal for business development purposes.
