UNSPSC 85504413 Bypass left axillary artery to right lower arm artery, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure code—a cardiovascular bypass graft—but the recent opportunities posted against this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty surgical networks, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these solicitations involve vascular bypass procedures or related surgical services. The mismatch suggests either a systematic miscoding error in the state and local procurement systems or that the code has been repurposed for general medical services administration and purchasing that bears no substantive relationship to the code's clinical definition.

No recent state and local solicitations were posted for bypass left axillary artery to right lower arm artery surgical procedures or related vascular surgery services. The opportunities tagged to this code—issued by the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, and County of Santa Clara—are administrative healthcare contracting (medical evaluations, pharmacy management, staffing networks, and surgical center-of-excellence carve-outs) rather than procurement of surgical procedures themselves. Buyers and vendors should verify code assignment with the issuing jurisdiction before pursuing work under this commodity classification.
