UNSPSC 85502070: Bypass innominate artery to left 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 innominate artery to left 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 031209B

UNSPSC 85502070 Bypass innominate artery to left lower leg artery with autologous venous tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show little alignment with that scope. The recent opportunities instead reflect occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs, temporary health professional staffing, pharmacy benefit management, and youth detention medical services — none of which involve bypass grafting or vascular surgery. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, county health systems, county commissioners, state transportation departments, and county probation departments, indicating broad use across municipal, county, and state health and human services agencies. The code appears to function as a catch-all medical services taxonomy entry rather than a true vascular procedure commodity.

The most recent opportunities are geographically dispersed across Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services, due October 16, 2026), California (City of Long Beach surgical benefit carve-out RFP, due October 7, 2026; County of Santa Clara Health System temporary health professional staffing pool, due October 7, 2026), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation occupational medical surveillance RFP, due October 9, 2026), Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefit management RFP, due April 9, 2026), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department RFI for emergency and specialty medical services, due September 25, 2026). The code shows activity across multiple jurisdictions and service lines rather than concentration in vascular surgery procurement; the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual recent solicitations suggests this code is misapplied to general medical administration and staffing rather than surgical procedure procurement.
