UNSPSC 85501029 Supplement left internal carotid artery with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work being solicited under this code designation in recent state and local procurement. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, and surgical procedure carve-out benefit programs — none of which involve vascular surgical procedures or autologous tissue substitution. The mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in the tagging system or a fundamental misalignment between the UNSPSC classification and the services being procured.

The actual recent procurement activity under this code comes from Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington state jurisdictions including the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability applications, RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach (surgical procedure carve-out benefit networks for municipal employees and retirees, RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations, RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary ancillary clinical staffing including audiology, imaging, therapy, and surgical support, RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026).
