This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left ulnar artery to left lower arm artery 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 031A0K4

UNSPSC 85504324 Bypass left ulnar artery to left lower arm artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that designates a specific surgical vascular procedure, yet the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code show no direct alignment with vascular bypass surgery procurement. Instead, the opportunities reflect health systems and public agencies soliciting administrative health services, occupational medicine surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, and emergency/specialty medical services for detained youth. The code's narrow procedural specificity—describing a particular surgical technique—does not match the scope of work actually being bought by state and local issuers, suggesting either a classification mismatch in the underlying opportunity data or that this code is rarely applied to state and local procurement activity as currently listed.

The recent opportunities span multiple issuing bodies including city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal employee benefits programs (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), county healthcare consortiums (Collier County), and regional health systems (County of Santa Clara Health System) across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) centered on disability benefit medical record review and examination scheduling for approximately 75 annual cases, the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) covering baseline and periodic examinations across 14 ferry system locations, and Santa Clara County Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) establishing a non-exclusive qualified vendor pool across ancillary clinical categories. The code shows little relevant recent state and local activity relative to its nominal surgical scope.
