UNSPSC 85511233 Replacement of right renal artery with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure rather than a category of services state and local governments regularly procure. The recent opportunities posted under this code show no alignment with the procedure itself; instead, they document state and local purchases of occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, specialty surgical carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. The code's nominal scope—a particular vascular surgical intervention—does not match the actual work being bought, which centers on administrative and clinical support services, staffing, and benefit program management rather than the performance of that specific surgical procedure.

State and local procurement activity under this code shows no recent opportunities directly related to renal artery replacement surgery. The issuing bodies posting under the code—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System—are pursuing medical surveillance, benefits administration, occupational health programs, and staffing services rather than surgical procurement. Geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida, but the diversity of activity across these jurisdictions reflects a mismatch between the code and the solicitations rather than a coherent procurement family. This code appears to be a data-entry error or taxonomy misalignment on the part of posting jurisdictions; the actual work being solicited does not correspond to the specific surgical procedure the code describes.
