UNSPSC 85511759: Bypass right femoral artery to left femoral artery with autologous arterial tissue, 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 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 041K0AJ

UNSPSC 85511759 Bypass right femoral artery to left femoral artery with autologous arterial tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. The code is tagged to a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local opportunities posted under it address occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out networks, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve vascular bypass grafting or autologous arterial tissue procurement and implantation. This mismatch suggests the code may be misapplied in state and local procurement systems or that the tagging reflects administrative classification rather than the work actually being bought.

The six recent opportunities span multiple issuing bodies—county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County), municipal government (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), county commissions (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation)—and operate across California, Arizona, Washington, Florida, and Texas. None of these solicitations solicit vascular surgical services, grafts, or related implantable devices. Bidders pursuing this UNSPSC code should verify tagging accuracy before investing in bid preparation, as the actual procurement activity under this commodity classification does not align with vascular surgery supply and service delivery.
