UNSPSC 85504416 Bypass left axillary artery to right upper arm artery, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual scope of state and local procurement activity recently tagged under it. The recent opportunities bear no relationship to vascular surgical procedures; instead, they span occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for public safety pension determinations, surgical care-out benefit programs, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. The code's nominal designation as a specific surgical bypass procedure does not align with the diverse health plan administration, workforce medical compliance, and clinical staffing services that state and local governments are soliciting under this identifier.

The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation, for occupational medical surveillance of ferry employees), counties (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of Commissioners, Santa Clara County Health System), municipalities (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), and special-purpose health systems. Recent activity is concentrated in California, Washington, Arizona, Florida, and Texas. Representative opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry locations with proposals due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation and disability record summarization services with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years, due October 16, 2026; the City of Long Beach's RFP (HR26753) for surgical care-out and center-of-excellence benefit programs for 3,800 PPO enrollees, due October 7, 2026; and Collier County's RFP (258414) for pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual spending near $8.7 million, due April 9, 2026.
