UNSPSC 85502822 Bypass left common carotid artery to intracranial artery, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six most recent opportunities posted under this code are independent medical evaluation services for disability retirement determinations (City of Phoenix), surgical procedure carve-out benefit administration (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance for ferry system employees (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency and specialty healthcare services for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (County of Santa Clara Health System). None of these solicitations involve the cardiovascular surgical procedure named in the code; the code assignment appears to be a taxonomy mismatch rather than substantive procurement activity aligned with the code's scope.

State and local procurement under this code shows no pattern worth pursuing at present. The posted opportunities span Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas across diverse issuing bodies—city retirement offices, county health systems, state transportation departments, and county probation services—but describe administrative healthcare services, clinical staffing, and benefits management rather than the specific open surgical bypass procedure the code nominally covers. No recent RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB for the named procedure appears in the recent-opportunities block. Unless state and local governments have begun soliciting this specialized neurovascular surgery through competitive procurement—a signal not present in the current data—this code warrants monitoring rather than active pursuit.
