UNSPSC 85504376 Bypass right brachial artery to right upper arm artery with autologous arterial tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its clinical procedure designation and the state and local procurement activity currently tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not involve vascular surgical procedures or their materials; instead, they describe occupational medical surveillance, independent disability evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical carve-out benefit programs for employee health plans. State and local purchasing offices appear to have applied this code to medical services procurement more broadly rather than to the specific surgical procedure named in the code taxonomy. The issuing bodies include county health systems, municipal retirement boards, state transportation agencies, county juvenile probation departments, and municipal employee benefits offices—a diverse mix of health care purchasers and public employers managing employee health benefits and occupational safety programs.

Geographic spread covers Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) to support disability benefit determinations for approximately 75 annual applications at a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 state locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code appears to function as a catch-all categorization for health care services procurement rather than as a dedicated channel for vascular surgical procedure supplies or services.
