This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left subclavian artery to upper arm vein with autologous arterial tissue, 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 03140AD

UNSPSC 85501860 Bypass left subclavian artery to upper arm vein with autologous arterial tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code reflect general health services procurement — independent medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve the specialized vascular surgery procedure the code nominally names. State and local buyers are not soliciting this specific surgical intervention as a standalone procurable service.

The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and actual buying activity suggests this Commodity code sees little relevant procurement use in state and local contracting. Issuers posting opportunities — the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System — are managing broad healthcare service categories, benefits administration, and staffing pools rather than procuring discrete surgical procedures. No representative opportunity under this code reflects demand for bypass surgery services, arterial grafting materials, or related surgical specialties in state and local healthcare systems.
