UNSPSC 85504512 Bypass right axillary artery to left lower arm artery, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal description does not align with the actual state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code involve occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, surgical procedure networks, pharmacy benefit management, youth detention healthcare services, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which constitute or involve vascular surgical procedures. The code shows little relevant recent activity; the mismatch between the code's clinical taxonomy name and the work being solicited suggests this Commodity code is either incorrectly applied in the state and local procurement systems issuing these notices or serves as a catch-all for healthcare service contracting that does not map cleanly to procedure-specific codes.

The six recent opportunities span multiple issuing bodies including city retirement offices, county health systems, state transportation agencies, county probation departments, and county commissioners' offices across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, maximum contract value $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026, with pre-bid conference August 31, 2026), the City of Long Beach RFP for surgical procedure carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence (due October 7, 2026, targeting go-live April 1, 2027), and the County of Santa Clara Health System non-exclusive multiple-award vehicle for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). State and local buyers appear to be actively procuring healthcare administration, occupational health services, and clinical staffing under this code, though the code designation itself does not reflect those categories.
