This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right axillary artery to left lower arm artery with nonautologous tissue 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 03150K4

UNSPSC 85504528 Bypass right axillary artery to left lower arm artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code nominally describing a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local activity shows little alignment with this clinical specification. The code sees solicitation activity centered on occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluation, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical care networks, and emergency youth detention medical services — none of which map directly to the vascular bypass procedure named in the code. State and local buyers posting under this code include county health systems, county human resources departments, state transportation agencies, county juvenile probation departments, and municipal retirement offices. The issuing bodies reflect a mix of operational health delivery (county health systems), employee benefit administration (county HR and city retirement offices), and public safety or youth detention medical support. This code appears to serve as a catch-all taxonomy for health services procurement that does not fit cleanly into narrower clinical categories, rather than a procedure-specific procurement vehicle.

Representative recent opportunities span multiple states and service lines. The Washington State Department of Transportation issued RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 Washington ferries locations with proposals due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona) issued RFP RTMRFP26001 for disability medical record summary and independent medical evaluation services with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years and proposals due October 16, 2026; the City of Long Beach (California) issued RFP HR26753 for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence with proposals due October 7, 2026; Collier County (Florida) issued RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services based on approximately $8.7 million in annual historical pharmacy spending with proposals due April 9, 2026; the County of Santa Clara Health System (California) issued RFSQ HHSFY270052 for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories with proposals due October 7, 2026; and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas) issued RFI 071626BNM seeking information from hospital and specialty providers for emergency and inpatient services for detained youth with responses due September 25, 2026. Recent activity concentrates in California, Washington, Arizona, Florida, and Texas, with procurement spanning employee health benefits, public safety occupational health, detention facility medical services, and temporary clinical staffing.
