This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left ulnar artery to lower arm vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 031A0KF

UNSPSC 85504323 Bypass left ulnar artery to lower arm vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific vascular surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code are unrelated to that scope — they cover independent medical evaluations for disability benefits, surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. The mismatch suggests the code is being applied inconsistently or erroneously by issuing bodies, rather than reflecting actual procurement of the vascular procedure named in the code.

The source shows no active procurement of the procedure itself. Issuing bodies across the sample include a city retirement office (Phoenix), a city employee benefits program (Long Beach), a state transportation agency (Washington State Department of Transportation), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County), a county health benefits consortium (Collier County), and a county health system (Santa Clara County). Activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, but no pattern of repeat buying under this code emerges from the available data. The disconnect between the code's technical description and the actual work being solicited indicates this commodity code is not a productive category for business development targeting under state and local procurement.
