UNSPSC 85501812: Bypass left subclavian artery to right upper leg artery, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left subclavian artery to right upper leg artery, open 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 03140Z6

UNSPSC 85501812 Bypass left subclavian artery to right upper leg artery, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with state and local procurement activity reflected in recent opportunities. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent solicitations tagged under it concern occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out benefits for employees, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these opportunities involve bypass surgery or vascular procedures as described in the code's nominal scope. The mismatch suggests either miscoding or data drift; the actual work being solicited under this code number does not correspond to its stated definition.

The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), spanning Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Recent activity shows public agencies procuring administrative medical services, health plan benefit management, temporary clinical staffing for health systems, and occupational health programs rather than surgical procedure codes. Given the absence of relevant surgical procurement aligned with the code's nominal scope and the presence of general health-administration solicitations tagged to a surgical procedure code, the category shows little decision-relevance for firms pursuing surgical product or service lines. The code warrants monitoring for recoding or category correction rather than active pursuit based on current signaling.
