UNSPSC 85491225 Bypass thoracic aorta to subclavian with autologous venous tissue, open approach is a Commodity code with a nominal scope tied to a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local opportunities show little activity directly aligned with this code's technical definition. The code appears designed to classify a discrete cardiovascular surgical intervention, yet the recent opportunities posted under it do not involve procurement of surgical procedure kits, devices, or direct surgical services matching this specification. Instead, the sourced opportunities span occupational health surveillance, employee benefit plan administration, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing — activities substantially disconnected from the stated code scope.

Geographic activity is dispersed across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no dominant concentration in any single jurisdiction. The Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) involves examinations across 14 ferry system locations; the City of Phoenix's independent medical evaluation RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) addresses disability benefit determinations; the City of Long Beach's surgical benefit carve-out RFP (HR26753, due October 7, 2026) targets bundled payment networks for specific procedure categories including spine and heart procedures; and Collier County's pharmacy benefit management RFP (258414, due April 9, 2026, now overdue) covered approximately 2,400 enrolled employees. Harris County Juvenile Probation issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services (071626BNM, due September 25, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System posted a non-exclusive multiple-award qualification pool for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) across ancillary clinical categories excluding nursing and physician services. The code shows little relevant procurement momentum and vendors evaluating this UNSPSC should verify current categorization with state and local procurement offices before investing pursuit resources.
