UNSPSC 85511709: Bypass left femoral artery to lower extremity artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left femoral artery to lower extremity 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 041L0KQ

UNSPSC 85511709 Bypass left femoral artery to lower extremity artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a surgical vascular procedure, but recent state and local opportunities show the code being applied broadly to occupational health medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services in custody settings — uses that bear little connection to the surgical code's stated scope. The issuing bodies include state health and transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation, County of Santa Clara Health System), county human resources and probation departments (Collier County, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and municipal pension and retirement offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office). The code sees recent activity across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington.

Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP 26001 for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability pension determinations, with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years and an October 16, 2026 proposal deadline; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations, with proposals due October 9, 2026 and a pre-bid conference held August 31, 2026; the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across 13 clinical categories, proposals due October 7, 2026; and the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out administration through Centers of Excellence, proposals due October 7, 2026. The mismatch between the code's stated vascular surgical procedure and the health services, staffing, and benefits administration actually being solicited suggests this code may be incorrectly tagged in state and local systems and warrants verification before pursuing opportunities listed under it.
