UNSPSC 85501959: Bypass right subclavian artery to lower arm vein with autologous arterial tissue, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right subclavian artery to lower 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 03130AF

UNSPSC 85501959 Bypass right subclavian artery to lower arm vein with autologous arterial tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local opportunities show little activity aligned with this procedural specification. The code appears in a procurement dataset that predominantly reflects health services contracting — medical evaluation, occupational surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, and clinical staffing — rather than procurement of the specific vascular bypass procedure named in the code. State and local governments issue opportunities under this code through health systems, county boards, city retirement offices, and public agencies managing employee health benefits and detention facilities. The scope of work being solicited under this code in practice encompasses independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations, occupational health surveillance for public employees, specialty medical carve-outs for PPO plans, pharmacy benefit administration, and temporary clinical staffing across ancillary specialties.

Recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office is soliciting independent medical evaluation services for approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications under Arizona's Public Safety Personnel Retirement System with proposals due October 16, 2026 via RFP; the Washington State Department of Transportation is requesting occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations with proposals due October 9, 2026 via RFP and a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026; the City of Long Beach is requesting proposals for a surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit program for approximately 3,800 active employees and retirees enrolled in an Anthem PPO plan with proposals due October 7, 2026 via RFP; Collier County is issuing an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees and 4,800 covered members with a historical annual pharmacy spend of approximately $8.7 million and proposals originally due April 9, 2026; and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency, inpatient, outpatient, and specialty healthcare services for detained youth with responses due September 25, 2026. The code shows material mismatch between its nominal surgical procedural scope and the health services administration and staffing opportunities actually being tagged under it in state and local procurement.
