UNSPSC 85502014 Bypass innominate artery to bilateral upper arm artery, open approach is a Commodity-tier code that does not align with state and local procurement activity. The recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show no connection to the surgical procedure the code nominally describes; instead, the opportunities procure inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for behavioral health workers, and emergency medical services medical direction — none of which involve vascular surgery procedures or operative interventions. The code appears to be a mislabeling or data error in the state and local procurement sources reviewed.

The issuing bodies posting these opportunities represent a mix of county correction departments, county health systems, county human resources divisions, county boards of commissioners, and county behavioral health agencies across Georgia, Florida, and California. No recent state and local opportunities under this code actually procure the bypass surgical service the UNSPSC taxonomy names, and the code shows little to no relevant activity for vendors offering vascular surgical services or related operative clinical resources to state and local government buyers.
