This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right subclavian artery to upper 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 031309D

UNSPSC 85501978 Bypass right subclavian artery to upper arm vein with autologous venous tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with actual state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code span independent medical evaluations, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-outs, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth—none of which involve vascular bypass surgery or the procedural implant this code nominates. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or misattribution in the source data. The opportunities that do appear reflect broader healthcare administration and professional staffing services rather than medical devices or surgical procedures.

State and local procurement activity tagged to this code shows no relevant recent solicitations. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office solicited independent medical evaluation services (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach sought surgical procedure carve-out management for employee benefit plans (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation requested occupational medical surveillance (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (RFI 071626BNM, due September 25, 2026); Collier County solicited pharmacy benefit management (RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026); and Santa Clara County Health System established a temporary health professional staffing vendor pool across clinical specialties (RFSQ RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). None of these opportunities involve the vascular bypass procedure or related implant devices this code nominates. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for procurement purposes and verify the intended UNSPSC classification with issuing bodies when opportunities are posted under it.
