This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left axillary artery to right lower leg artery with synthetic substitute, 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 03160J9

UNSPSC 85504439, Bypass left axillary artery to right lower leg artery with synthetic substitute, open approach, is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure, yet recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code do not reflect vascular surgery procurement. Instead, the solicitations tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which directly align with the code's nominal scope of arterial bypass grafting. The mismatch suggests this code sees little or no relevant recent activity in state and local procurement; opportunities appearing under it do not match the surgical procedure the code describes.

No state and local governments have posted recent solicitations for vascular surgical services, arterial bypass procedures, or synthetic graft materials under this code. The issuing bodies that have used this code designation — the City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, and County of Santa Clara — are sourcing health plan administration, occupational health services, and clinical staffing support rather than surgical implants or procedure-specific services. Given the material divergence between the code's stated scope and actual procurement activity, this code does not present a credible pursuit opportunity based on current state and local demand signals.
