UNSPSC 85511753: Bypass right femoral artery to left femoral artery with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right femoral artery to left femoral artery with synthetic 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 041K0JJ

UNSPSC 85511753 Bypass right femoral artery to left femoral artery with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six recent opportunities tagged under this code—independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing—do not involve vascular surgical procedures or implantable cardiovascular devices. The code's nominal scope (a specific femoral artery bypass surgical procedure) does not align with the health benefits administration, staffing, and occupational health services actually being solicited by state and local issuing bodies. State procurement systems occasionally misclassify healthcare-related opportunities at high levels of the UNSPSC hierarchy; this code appears to be an example of that misalignment rather than active market demand for vascular surgery supplies or services.

The issuing bodies posting under this code span multiple jurisdictions—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), City of Long Beach (California), Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County (Florida), and Santa Clara County Health System (California)—but none of the solicitations involve cardiovascular or orthopedic implants, surgical equipment, or procedure-specific supplies. Without genuine vascular surgery procurement activity in the recent opportunities record, pursuing opportunities tagged to this code would require verification that the underlying need matches the code's actual scope rather than reliance on the UNSPSC classification.
