This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass innominate artery to left upper arm artery 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 03120A1

UNSPSC 85502063 Bypass innominate artery to left upper arm artery with autologous arterial tissue, open approach is a Commodity code describing a specific surgical procedure that state and local governments do not actively procure. The recent opportunities tagged under this code do not align with the surgical intervention named in the commodity definition; instead, they involve independent medical evaluation services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, specialty medical networks for public employees, and temporary health professional staffing. These represent administrative and operational healthcare services rather than the procurement of a discrete surgical procedure or related implants or equipment. The mismatch reflects either a data-entry error in the state procurement systems or an overly broad application of the code to medical-service categories that fall outside its nominal scope.

State and local procurement activity under the code's nominal definition does not appear in the recent solicitations block. The opportunities posted by the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System all address workforce, benefits administration, and clinical staffing rather than surgical procedures themselves. No recent RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB for vascular bypass grafts, arterial tissue banks, surgical instruments, or related clinical supplies appears in the source material. Business development professionals pursuing this code should verify whether state and local procurement systems continue to use this Commodity designation for actual surgical-procedure procurement or whether the tagging reflects a classification error in the underlying solicitation database.
