UNSPSC 85501862: Bypass left subclavian artery to left lower leg artery with autologous arterial tissue, open approach

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

UNSPSC 85501862 Bypass left subclavian artery to left lower leg artery with autologous arterial tissue, open approach is a Commodity code nominally describing a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it show no alignment with vascular surgical services. Instead, the solicitations represent a mix of occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluation, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, and specialty surgical carve-out programs — none of which involve the named arterial bypass procedure. The code shows little relevant recent activity for the procedure it nominally describes.

The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 reflect health plan administration and occupational medicine services from diverse issuing bodies: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluations for disability determinations), the City of Long Beach (surgery and specialty procedure carve-out for PPO enrollees), the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (occupational medical surveillance), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary ancillary clinical staffing). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The code appears to have been assigned by procurement offices to these opportunities without reflecting the vascular surgical scope the code nominally represents, suggesting either a classification error or a divergence between the UNSPSC taxonomy and actual state and local procurement practice for these service categories.
