UNSPSC 85511110: Supplement right external iliac artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right external iliac 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 04UH0KZ

UNSPSC 85511110 "Supplement right external iliac artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach" is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure, yet recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code do not reflect surgical procurement aligned with the code's clinical scope. Instead, the tagged opportunities span occupational health surveillance, medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical procedure carve-out benefits — none of which involve vascular surgery or arterial supplementation. The mismatch between the code's nominal description and the actual work being solicited suggests the code shows little relevant recent activity for vendors specializing in vascular surgical services or materials.

The recent opportunities reveal procurement across multiple state and local issuing bodies — a state ferry system, county health authorities, city retirement offices, and municipal human resources divisions — pursuing broadly defined medical service procurement rather than surgical procedure categories. The Washington State Department of Transportation is soliciting occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office is requesting independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations, due October 16, 2026; the City of Long Beach is seeking a surgical procedure carve-out benefit program due October 7, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System is establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories, due October 7, 2026. Activity appears across Washington, Arizona, California, and Florida, with no geographic concentration evident. The code's current activity does not align with the surgical device or tissue substitute procurement a vendor would expect under the stated UNSPSC title.
