This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left femoral artery to peroneal artery with autologous arterial 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 041L0AM

UNSPSC 85511725 Bypass left femoral artery to peroneal artery with autologous arterial tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the scope of work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement. The recent opportunities tagged with this code span independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical and medical procedure carve-outs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the vascular surgical procedure named in the code. This mismatch suggests either a systematic tagging error in the underlying procurement database or that the code has been repurposed to capture a broader range of health service administration and clinical staffing activities that bear no connection to the specific surgical intervention the code nominally describes.

No recent state and local procurement activity directly solicits the vascular surgical service described in the code's title. The issuing bodies using this code classification include Arizona city pension boards, California municipalities, Washington State transportation agencies, Texas county juvenile justice departments, Florida county health consortiums, and California county health systems. The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Without a meaningful connection between the code's nominal scope and the work being purchased, this code does not represent a viable pursuit area for vendors offering vascular surgical services or related medical devices and supplies.
