UNSPSC 85516462: Bypass right femoral artery to popliteal artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right femoral artery to 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 041K4ZL

UNSPSC 85516462 Bypass right femoral artery to popliteal artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevance to recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged under it cover disability medical evaluations, occupational health surveillance, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention healthcare services—none of which involve the specified vascular bypass procedure. State and local governments are not soliciting this particular surgical intervention as a standalone commodity. The mismatch between the code's narrow clinical scope and the breadth of unrelated healthcare contracting in the tagged opportunities suggests either systematic miscoding or an artifact in the procurement system's indexing. No solicitation activity directly addresses the procurement of bypass-procedure-related supplies, equipment, or services.

The issuing bodies across the tagged opportunities span city health retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal employee-benefits purchasing (City of Long Beach, Collier County), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), county health systems (Santa Clara County), and specialty staffing consortia. The geographic footprint includes Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas. However, given the fundamental misalignment between the code's clinical definition and the actual work being bought, the activity patterns do not indicate genuine demand for this commodity code. Buyers evaluating opportunities under UNSPSC 85516462 should verify code accuracy with the issuing body before pursuing, as tagged solicitations do not reflect procurement of the specified bypass procedure or related services.
