UNSPSC 85501810 Bypass left subclavian artery to bilateral upper leg artery, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure; however, the recent state and local procurement activity tagged to this code shows little alignment with the clinical scope. The recent opportunities center on occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve the named vascular surgical procedure. State and local governments posting under this code are not soliciting arterial bypass surgery or clinical surgical services directly; rather, they are procuring administrative, management, and staffing functions that support or adjudicate medical benefits and occupational health programs.

The issuing bodies span multiple jurisdictions and entity types: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (pension disability evaluations), the City of Long Beach (surgical benefit carve-out administration for employee health plans), the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing). The opportunities posted between late July and mid-September 2026, with response dates concentrated in October 2026 (Phoenix, Long Beach, and Washington State Ferries) and early April 2026 (Collier County). The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Washington State, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years) and the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 Washington ferry locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, pre-bid conference August 31, 2026). The code shows active procurement volume but with significant mismatch between its nominal surgical scope and actual purchasing activity under it.
