UNSPSC 85511369 Occlusion of superior mesenteric artery, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominal scope describes a specific surgical procedure; however, the recent opportunities tagged under it address independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. These solicitations span administrative healthcare contracting, occupational medicine compliance, and clinical staffing—none of which align with the code's stated clinical procedure scope. The mismatch between code definition and actual procurement suggests either a data-tagging error in the source or that this code is not in active use for state and local government contracting.

The six recent opportunities posted between July and September 2026 originate from Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), reflecting a geographically dispersed issuer base spanning city retirement boards, county health systems, state transportation agencies, and county probation departments. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026; $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (due October 9, 2026; pre-bid conference August 31, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026; non-exclusive multiple-award vehicle with no guaranteed work). Given the code's clinical specificity and the complete absence of procurement activity that matches it, vendors focused on this procedure code should verify issuing-body classification and source tagging with individual jurisdictions before pursuing opportunities.
