UNSPSC 85504539: Bypass right axillary artery to right lower leg artery with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right 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 03150J9

UNSPSC 85504539 Bypass right axillary artery to right lower leg artery with synthetic substitute, open approach (Commodity) shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal scope. The code's title describes a specific surgical procedure — a vascular bypass graft — yet the six recent state and local opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, Centers of Excellence surgical networks, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency services for detained youth. None of these opportunities involve the procurement or reimbursement of bypass grafts or related implantable devices. The mismatch suggests the code has been applied to these opportunities in error or reflects a data-classification anomaly within state and local procurement systems. Healthcare purchasing does occur across state and local jurisdictions — counties, cities, and special-purpose health systems regularly solicit medical services, staffing, and benefit management — but the specific vascular procedure named in this Commodity code does not appear in the recent solicitations tagged to it.

If your firm specializes in vascular implant systems or bypass graft procurement, this code's current posting pattern does not reflect active state and local demand for that product. Monitoring this code for future activity is warranted if the classification error is corrected, but near-term pursuit under the current tagging is unlikely to yield relevant opportunities. The geographic diversity of recent postings (Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, Florida) and the range of issuing bodies (city retirement offices, transit authorities, health systems, county governments) reflects broad state and local healthcare procurement activity, though not in the vascular-surgery-device category.
