UNSPSC 85511830 Bypass left external iliac artery to right external iliac artery with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The code nominally describes a specific surgical vascular bypass procedure, yet the recent solicitations tagged to this code cover occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability benefits, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out networks, and emergency medical services for detained youth. These opportunities span healthcare administration, benefits management, and clinical staffing — not vascular surgical procedures. The mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in how opportunities have been classified or a fundamental disconnect between the code definition and its application in state and local procurement systems.

The issuing bodies include state health agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries), county governments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Santa Clara County Health System), and municipal entities (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). Geographic activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services with a response deadline of October 9, 2026 and a pre-bid conference scheduled for August 31, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services with a response deadline of October 16, 2026; and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services. The code shows no relevant recent activity for the vascular surgical procedure it nominally describes.
