UNSPSC 85511841: Bypass left external iliac artery to right external iliac 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 right external iliac 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 041J0AD

UNSPSC 85511841 (Bypass left external iliac artery to right external iliac artery with autologous arterial tissue, open approach) is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under it bear no alignment with vascular bypass surgery and instead span occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefits carve-outs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, emergency youth detention healthcare, and other healthcare administration and staffing services unrelated to the code's stated scope. The mismatch reflects inconsistent or erroneous UNSPSC coding in state and local procurement systems rather than genuine procurement activity under this code. State and local governments do not appear to solicit vascular bypass procedures—or comparable surgical procedures—as standalone commodities under this or related UNSPSC codes; the opportunities posted under this designation address healthcare management, benefits administration, and staffing functions.

The issuing bodies include county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System, Collier County Board of County Commissioners), municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), transit authorities (Washington State Department of Transportation/Ferries), county juvenile probation departments (Harris County), and local government health and HR divisions. Recent opportunities span Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach, Santa Clara, Collier), Washington (statewide ferry system locations), and Texas (Harris County), with activity concentrated in the West and South. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminals (due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQ to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). The code shows no genuine procurement activity in its nominal surgical-procedure domain and merits deprioritization unless your firm actively pursues healthcare administration and occupational health services unrelated to vascular surgery.
