UNSPSC 85511828 Bypass left external iliac artery to bilateral external iliac arteries with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with actual state and local procurement activity in the recent opportunities submitted under this classification. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the six recent state and local solicitations tagged to it procure medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, hospital-based emergency and specialty care, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve vascular bypass surgery or the procedural supplies the code describes. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding or a data-quality issue in the source records; the code itself reflects a highly specialized clinical procedure unlikely to be procured directly by state and local agencies as a standalone line item.

The recent opportunities cluster instead around administrative and staffing medical services across diverse issuing bodies: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical evaluations for public safety pension determinations), the City of Long Beach (Centers of Excellence surgical carve-out networks for employee health plans), the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty care for detained youth), Collier County Board of Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary ancillary clinical staffing). Geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida, with no dominant jurisdiction. Activity is recent through October 2026, but the code does not usefully describe what is actually being bought; business development pursuit under this UNSPSC classification would reflect a categorization error rather than genuine opportunity alignment.
