UNSPSC 85504369 Bypass right brachial artery to lower arm vein with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that appears to describe a specific surgical implant or bypass graft procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code show little alignment with the nominal scope. The opportunities posted against this code are health services and benefits administration contracts — including pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation services, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit program administration — none of which involve the procurement of specific surgical devices, implants, or bypass grafts. The mismatch suggests either miscoding of opportunities or divergence between the code's definition and how state and local procurement offices are using it in practice. The issuing bodies include county health systems, county human resources divisions, city retirement boards, state transportation departments, county juvenile justice agencies, and municipal benefits procurement offices across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington.

Recent opportunities show no direct procurement activity under the code's stated commodity scope. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted RFP RTMRFP26001 on September 16, 2026 for Independent Medical Evaluation Services with responses due October 16, 2026; Collier County issued RFP 25-8414 on August 20, 2026 for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services with a response deadline of April 9, 2026 (a date in the past relative to the current date of October 20, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation posted RFP20260825 on August 25, 2026 for occupational medical surveillance services for Washington State Ferries with responses due October 9, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System posted RFSQHHSFY270052 on July 7, 2026 for temporary health professional staffing services with responses due October 7, 2026. None of these solicitations procure the surgical implant or device described in the code's name. Businesses pursuing this code should verify that their products or services actually fall within state and local procurement officers' interpretation of the category before investing in pursuit.
