UNSPSC 85501827: Bypass left subclavian artery to right lower leg artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left subclavian artery to right lower leg 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 03140K9

UNSPSC 85501827 Bypass left subclavian artery to right lower leg artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical vascular procedure, but recent state and local contract activity under this code does not reflect procurement of that service. The most recent opportunities posted under this code instead span occupational health surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the code's stated scope of a vascular bypass procedure. The code shows little relevant procurement activity tied to its nominal definition and appears to be a taxonomy mismatch in how state and local bodies have tagged these health services opportunities.

The issuing bodies active under this code include a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and cities (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), reflecting diverse jurisdictions with health benefit or occupational health programs. Geographic distribution spans Washington, Arizona, California, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability pension applicants due October 16, 2026 with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; and the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out programs due October 7, 2026. Given the consistent mismatch between the code's stated procedure and the actual work being solicited, business development professionals should verify code assignment with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities or should expect the code to remain a low-volume category for vascular surgical procurement specifically.
