UNSPSC 85504442 Bypass left axillary artery to right upper leg artery with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity-tier clinical procedure code that does not align with the actual state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities on record span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs for government employee plans, and information requests for emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve vascular bypass surgery or implantable medical devices. State and local solicitation tagging appears to have misapplied this code to general healthcare administration and staffing services.

The issuing bodies across the recent opportunities represent a broad mix: state health and transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation, County of Santa Clara Health System), county government (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and municipal government (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). Geographic activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026) for baseline and periodic examinations across 14 ferry system locations; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit determinations (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive staffing pool solicitation (due October 7, 2026) for temporary health professional placements across ancillary clinical categories. The code shows no relevant recent activity for vascular surgical procedures or implantable devices in state and local procurement.
