This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right ulnar artery to right lower arm artery with synthetic 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 03190J3

UNSPSC 85504336 Bypass right ulnar artery to right lower arm artery with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local procurement activity tagged to this code bears no meaningful connection to vascular bypass grafting. The code shows little relevant recent activity; state and local governments are not soliciting vascular surgical services under this classifier. Instead, recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability pension medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, Centers of Excellence carve-out benefits, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which align with the code's nominal scope of a specific arterial bypass technique. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the state and local procurement systems or a fundamental divergence between the code's technical definition and how jurisdictions are actually tagging health services contracting.

The issuing bodies represented in the recent opportunities include a state transportation department (Washington State Department of Transportation), multiple cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), a county board of commissioners (Collier County), a county health system (Santa Clara), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County), and county-level pension boards. Geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry locations with proposals due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix's RFP for disability medical evaluation services with a $750,000 five-year contract maximum and an October 16, 2026 deadline; and the County of Santa Clara's non-exclusive multiple-award vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories with proposals due October 7, 2026. None of these solicitations reflect the specific arterial bypass procedure named in the UNSPSC code.
