This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left subclavian artery to right pulmonary artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 03140KM

UNSPSC 85501820 Bypass left subclavian artery to right pulmonary artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific cardiac surgical procedure; however, the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code do not align with surgical implantation or tissue-substitute procurement. Instead, the code appears to capture a broad set of occupational health, disability evaluation, and medical staffing services that state and local jurisdictions are actively soliciting. The work actually being bought includes independent medical evaluations and disability benefit determinations for public safety personnel retirement systems, occupational medical surveillance programs for state employees, specialty surgical carve-out networks for municipal employee health plans, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary ancillary health professional staffing. Issuing bodies include city retirement offices (Phoenix), state transportation departments (Washington), county health systems (Santa Clara), county governments (Collier, Harris), and municipal human resources divisions (Long Beach). The code shows activity across a fragmented issuer base rather than concentration among repeat buyers, though Phoenix and Long Beach represent notable recent municipal procurements.

Recent opportunities span Arizona, Washington, California, and Florida. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted RFP RTMRFP26001 on September 16, 2026, requesting independent medical evaluation services including medical record summarization and scheduling of independent medical and psychiatric examinations for approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications, with a response deadline of October 16, 2026 and a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years commencing February 3, 2027. The Washington State Department of Transportation, on behalf of the Washington State Ferries, issued RFP RFP20260825 on August 25, 2026, soliciting occupational medical surveillance services (baseline, periodic, follow-up, and exit examinations) across 14 Washington ferry terminals and service locations, with proposals due October 9, 2026 and a two-year initial contract term with options to extend up to five additional years. The City of Long Beach posted RFP HR26753 on August 26, 2026, requesting proposals for a surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit program covering Centers of Excellence for knee, hip, orthopedic, shoulder, spine, heart, weight loss, and oncology procedures for approximately 3,800 active employees and retirees, with a response deadline of October 7, 2026 and contract go-live targeted for April 1, 2027. The County of Santa Clara Health System issued RFSQHHSFY270052 on July 7, 2026, establishing a non-exclusive, multiple-award qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing in 13 ancillary clinical categories, with proposals due October 7, 2026 and no guaranteed work or volume.
