UNSPSC 85501979: Bypass right subclavian artery to bilateral lower leg artery with autologous venous tissue, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right subclavian artery to bilateral lower leg artery 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 031309C

UNSPSC 85501979 Bypass right subclavian artery to bilateral lower leg artery with autologous venous tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local procurement activity, shows little alignment between its nominal clinical procedure description and actual purchasing patterns. The recent opportunities tagged under this code encompass independent medical evaluation services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out networks, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which correspond to the specific vascular surgical intervention the code nominally describes. This mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in state and local procurement systems or that the code has been repurposed for broader healthcare service procurement that does not reflect its original taxonomy intent. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices (Phoenix), county health systems and county commissions (Santa Clara, Collier County, Harris County), state departments of transportation (Washington), and municipal benefits offices (Long Beach), spanning both clinical service delivery and employee health benefit administration.

The geographic spread of recent activity includes California (Santa Clara County, Long Beach), Arizona (Phoenix), Florida (Collier County), Texas (Harris County), and Washington State, with no clear concentration in any single region. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) supporting approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications at a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026); and Santa Clara County Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The disparity between code definition and purchasing reality warrants verification of coding accuracy before pursuing opportunities flagged under this commodity.
