UNSPSC 85511851: Bypass left external iliac artery to left external iliac artery with autologous venous tissue, open approach

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 autologous venous 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 041J09F

UNSPSC 85511851 Bypass left external iliac artery to left external iliac artery with autologous venous tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal medical-procedure scope. The recent opportunities posted under this code in state and local procurement do not reflect vascular surgical procedures; instead, they span independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical-procedure carve-out networks for employee benefits, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these solicitations involves the specific vascular bypass procedure the code nominally describes, indicating a mismatch between the code's taxonomy definition and the work state and local governments are actually tagging under it in practice.

The issuing bodies across these posted opportunities include city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal human resources departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation authorities (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health and juvenile justice systems (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and regional health systems. No single jurisdiction appears more than once, and geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The dollar scale and contract structure vary widely, from the Phoenix Retirement Office's $750,000 five-year RFP for medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026) to Collier County's PBM RFP based on approximately $8.7 million in annual historical pharmacy spending (due April 9, 2026). The absence of vascular-procedure-specific solicitations and the presence of employee health-benefits and occupational-health-surveillance work under this code suggests the UNSPSC categorization may be incorrectly applied or that this particular commodity code does not reflect meaningful state and local procurement demand at present.
