This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left external iliac artery to left external iliac 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 041J0JF

UNSPSC 85511829 Bypass left external iliac artery to left external iliac artery with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with actual state and local procurement activity reflected in recent solicitations. The code nominally describes a specific surgical bypass procedure, yet state and local governments are not soliciting surgical implants or vascular bypass services under this designation. Recent opportunities tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, disability medical evaluations, and surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans—none of which involve vascular bypass implants or surgical devices. This mismatch signals either a classification error in how opportunities were coded to this Commodity or that the code does not serve as an active procurement vehicle for state and local bodies.

The six recent opportunities show solicitations from Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, county pension boards), California (City of Long Beach, Collier County, County of Santa Clara Health System), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department). The Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, budgeted at $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFP for occupational medical surveillance services with proposals due October 9, 2026 and a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026; Collier County issued an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services; and the County of Santa Clara Health System solicited a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing with proposals due October 7, 2026. None of these opportunities represent procurement of the vascular surgical device described in the code's title, indicating limited or no current market activity under this Commodity for state and local buyers.
