UNSPSC 85502042 Bypass innominate artery to right upper leg artery with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code—independent medical evaluation services for public-safety pension boards, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferries, specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—involve health plan administration, occupational health compliance, and clinical staffing coordination, not vascular bypass surgery or surgical implants. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical procedure and prosthetic implant, whereas the opportunities soliciting under it address health service contracting, benefits administration, and workforce deployment at state agencies, counties, and municipalities.

The source shows no recent opportunities that involve procurement of the actual surgical procedure or implant specified in the code's name. State and local governments do not typically issue RFPs for individual surgical procedures; the mismatch between the code and the posted opportunities signals either systematic tagging error or the code's use as a catch-all for health-services categories that lack more precise taxonomy alignment. Business development professionals evaluating this code should treat the recent activity as unrelated to vascular surgical implants and note that the code does not currently reflect material state and local procurement opportunity in its stated domain.
