UNSPSC 85511835: Bypass left external iliac artery to foot artery with autologous arterial tissue, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left external iliac artery to foot artery with autologous arterial tissue, 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 041J0AP

UNSPSC 85511835 Bypass left external iliac artery to foot artery with autologous arterial tissue, open approach is a Commodity code nominally describing a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code show little alignment with that clinical specification. The source identifies six recent opportunities, most of which concern medical services procurement unrelated to vascular surgery: independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, health professional temporary staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency services for detained youth. Only the City of Long Beach surgical benefit solicitation mentions orthopedic and spine procedures among a broader list of specialties; none directly reference vascular or arterial bypass surgery. The issuing bodies are diverse — a city retirement office (Phoenix), a state transportation department (Washington), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County, Texas), a county health system (Santa Clara), a city human resources department (Long Beach), and a county board of commissioners (Collier County, Florida) — suggesting the code either captures a broader range of medical procurement than its name implies or has been applied inconsistently across jurisdictions.

Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no single state dominating recent postings. The most concrete recent opportunity is the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services, due October 16, 2026, with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations, due October 9, 2026; and the City of Long Beach HR26753 RFP for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits, due October 7, 2026, targeting an Anthem PPO population of approximately 3,800 covered lives. Given the mismatch between the Commodity code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited, firms should verify code assignment with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities tagged under this classification.
