UNSPSC 85504380: Bypass right brachial artery to right upper arm artery with autologous venous tissue, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right brachial artery to right upper arm artery with autologous venous tissue, 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 317090

UNSPSC 85504380 Bypass right brachial artery to right upper arm artery with autologous venous tissue, open approach is a Commodity code representing a specific surgical procedure. The recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not reflect procurement of the procedure itself; instead, they span medical services contracting — occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit administration, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing — that fall outside the scope of vascular bypass surgery. The mismatch suggests either miscoding of opportunities or that state and local procurement offices are using this UNSPSC code to organize health services contracts more broadly than the code's procedure-specific definition. The issuing bodies include county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System), city retirement offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), transit authorities (Washington State Department of Transportation / Washington State Ferries), county juvenile justice departments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), city human resources functions (City of Long Beach), county commissioners (Collier County), and county juvenile probation departments — a diverse mix of health-adjacent administrative and operational functions rather than surgical service procurement.

Geographic activity is concentrated in California, Arizona, Washington, Florida, and Texas, based on recent solicitations. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award qualification solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Given the procedural specificity of the code and the administrative-services nature of actual recent postings, activity under this code likely reflects state and local procurement system tagging rather than genuine market demand for vascular bypass surgery procurement itself.
