UNSPSC 85511811: Bypass left external iliac artery to right internal iliac artery, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left external iliac artery to right internal iliac artery, 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 041J0Z9

UNSPSC 85511811 Bypass left external iliac artery to right internal iliac artery, open approach (Commodity) does not align with state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical vascular procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations, and surgical care networks—none of which involve the named procedure. The mismatch suggests a coding error in the source material rather than active state and local procurement for vascular bypass surgery. Issuers tagging opportunities under this code include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of Washington State Ferries), the City of Long Beach, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, and the County of Santa Clara Health System, spanning Arizona, Washington, California, Texas, and Florida. The opportunities themselves address health plan administration, occupational health compliance, medical staffing, and inpatient services for public employees, retirees, and youth in custody—categories distinct from surgical procedures.

Because the opportunities do not reflect procurement for the named procedure, this code shows little decision-relevant activity for vascular surgery vendors or surgical service providers. Bidders should verify coding accuracy when pursuing medical-related opportunities posted under this commodity code.
