UNSPSC 85511825: Bypass left external iliac artery to bilateral femoral arteries with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left external iliac artery to bilateral femoral arteries 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 041J0JK

UNSPSC 85511825, Bypass left external iliac artery to bilateral femoral arteries with synthetic substitute, open approach, is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical vascular procedure; however, the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code show little alignment with the code's nominal surgical scope. Instead, the opportunities solicited span occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit program administration, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve the bypass procedure named in the code. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, county health systems, transit authorities, and county commissioners' offices, indicating fragmented purchasing across multiple service lines and jurisdictions rather than coordinated procurement of a single procedure or related surgical inputs.

Geographic activity appears concentrated in three states: Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), and Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), with Harris County, Texas and Collier County, Florida representing isolated instances. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) to support disability benefit determinations for approximately 75 annual public safety pension applications; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) with a pre-bid conference scheduled for August 31, 2026, requiring examinations across 14 Washington ferry locations and physician board certification in occupational medicine; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive, multiple-award qualification RFQ for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code assignment appears to be a data-quality issue rather than a reflection of actual procurement activity under this specific surgical procedure line.
