UNSPSC 85501877: Bypass left subclavian artery to lower arm vein with autologous venous tissue, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left subclavian artery to lower arm vein with autologous venous 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 031409F

UNSPSC 85501877 Bypass left subclavian artery to lower arm vein with autologous venous tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure for vascular bypass grafting, but recent opportunities posted under this code actually solicit independent medical evaluation services, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit carve-out programs—none of which involve the performance of the named procedure. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work solicited under it suggests either miscoding at the source or that this code is not actively used by state and local jurisdictions for procurement aligned with its definition.

The most recent opportunities span Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation), and Texas (Harris County), but none address the vascular bypass procedure the code is intended to represent. Until state and local buyers begin posting opportunities that match the code's actual scope, this code presents no clear market for vendors offering vascular surgery services to public sector health systems or procurement offices.
