This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right axillary artery to left upper leg artery with autologous venous tissue, 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 315097

UNSPSC 85504573 Bypass right axillary artery to left upper leg artery with autologous venous tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code are for independent medical evaluation services, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth — none of which involve the particular vascular surgery procedure the code names. The mismatch indicates either tagging error in the underlying solicitation records or that this code does not see meaningful state and local procurement activity in the categories it nominally covers.

Recent opportunities show activity across multiple issuing bodies including city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal health systems (Long Beach, Santa Clara), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health and juvenile justice systems (Harris County, Collier County), and health care consortiums. Geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no clear concentration in any single region. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP (due October 16, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing qualification vehicle (due October 7, 2026). Given the code's nominal scope, practitioners should verify whether their service offerings genuinely fall within vascular surgical procedure provision or whether a higher-tier code better describes their state and local health-care business.
