UNSPSC 85501842 Bypass left subclavian artery to upper arm vein with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that appears in state and local procurement systems but shows no recent activity aligned with its medical device or surgical procedure nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code reflect a significant mismatch: they solicit independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, Centers of Excellence surgical networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency care for detained youth — none of which involve vascular bypass devices or the implantable medical hardware the code describes. This suggests either systematic miscoding at the source or use of the code as a catchall for health services procurement without regard to its intended taxonomy tier.

State and local issuing bodies appearing in the dataset include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (RFP for independent medical evaluations; due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach (RFP for surgical benefit carve-out programs; due October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (RFP for occupational medical surveillance; due October 9, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (RFI for emergency and specialty services; due September 25, 2026), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (RFP for pharmacy benefit management; due April 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing; due October 7, 2026). Activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no discernible concentration. Given the consistent mismatch between the Commodity code definition and actual solicitation scope, this code presents minimal targeting value for vendors in medical device, implant, or surgical hardware supply.
