UNSPSC 85516404, Bypass left popliteal artery to peroneal artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its technical medical procedure name and the actual state and local procurement activity currently being solicited. The recent opportunities posted under this code encompass occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, temporary ancillary health professional staffing, pharmacy benefit management services, surgical procedure carve-out benefits, and specialty medical services for detained youth — none of which involve the specific vascular surgical procedure the code nominally describes. This mismatch suggests the code may have been applied broadly to medical services solicitations without precise commodity-level specificity or that state and local procurement systems are using the code as a catch-all for healthcare service contracting rather than as a precise procedure-line item.

The issuing bodies span a diverse mix of state departments, counties, cities, and public health systems. The Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of Washington State Ferries) solicited occupational medical surveillance services with a response deadline of October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office requested independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026; the County of Santa Clara Health System posted a temporary health professional staffing qualification pool due October 7, 2026; and Collier County Board of County Commissioners issued a pharmacy benefit management RFP with a response deadline of April 9, 2026. Geographic activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, and Florida. Given the disconnect between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being bought, firms pursuing opportunities under this code should verify the specific service requirements in each solicitation rather than assuming alignment with the code descriptor.
