UNSPSC 85511730: Bypass left femoral artery to lower extremity artery with autologous venous tissue, 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 autologous venous 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 041L09Q

UNSPSC 85511730 Bypass left femoral artery to lower extremity artery with autologous venous tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code shows little alignment with vascular surgical services. The recent opportunities instead reflect general medical and healthcare administrative services — including occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing. State and local governments are soliciting these services through a mix of issuing bodies: county governments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, County of Santa Clara Health System), city retirement and benefits offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), and state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation). The code shows significant misalignment between its nominal scope and what is actually being procured, suggesting either a data-entry error in the opportunities or a systematic miscoding of healthcare administration services under a procedure-specific UNSPSC classification.

Recent representative opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (posted August 25, 2026, proposals due October 9, 2026) covering medical examinations for ferries workforce across 14 Washington locations; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services and disability record review (posted September 16, 2026, proposals due October 16, 2026) with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the City of Long Beach's RFP for Centers of Excellence surgical carve-out benefits (posted August 26, 2026, proposals due October 7, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation for temporary health professional staffing (posted July 7, 2026, proposals due October 7, 2026). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Given the material mismatch between the code's procedural description and the healthcare administration and workforce services being solicited, this code does not represent a usable category for pursuing state and local vascular surgery opportunities.
