UNSPSC 85492071: Bypass thoracic aorta to carotid with autologous arterial tissue, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass thoracic aorta to carotid with autologous arterial tissue, 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 021W4AD

UNSPSC 85492071 Bypass thoracic aorta to carotid with autologous arterial tissue, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful alignment between its name and the state and local procurement activity actually being conducted under it. The recent opportunities tagged to this code involve medical surveillance services, occupational health examinations, independent disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit program management, pharmacy benefit administration, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve the specific thoracic aortic bypass procedure named in the code.

State and local governments posting opportunities under this code represent a fragmented mix of issuing bodies across multiple jurisdictions: city retirement boards and pension systems (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), municipal human resources departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation authorities (Washington State Department of Transportation, Washington State Ferries), county probation and detention services (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), county health systems (County of Santa Clara Health System), county benefits consortiums (Collier County), and county boards of commissioners (Collier County). Geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services with a due date of October 16, 2026 and a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations with a due date of October 9, 2026 and a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQHHSFY270052 for temporary health professional staffing services due October 7, 2026, structured as a non-exclusive, multiple-award vehicle with no guaranteed work. The code appears to carry a medical classification that does not match the administrative, occupational health, staffing, and benefit management services actually being procured, suggesting a taxonomy alignment issue rather than genuine activity in specialized cardiovascular surgical procedures.
