UNSPSC 85511952: Bypass right external iliac artery to right 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 right external iliac artery to right 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 041H09D

UNSPSC 85511952 Bypass right external iliac artery to right external iliac artery with autologous venous tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical vascular procedure, yet the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not reflect vascular surgery procurement. Instead, the opportunities solicited span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation services, specialty surgical carve-out benefit programs for public employees, pharmacy benefit management administration, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being bought suggests that either the code has been misapplied to these opportunities or that state and local procurement systems are using this vascular-surgery Commodity code as a catch-all for broader healthcare services. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices (Phoenix), county procurement divisions (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), state transportation departments (Washington), and municipal workforce agencies (Long Beach), indicating that healthcare procurement in state and local government spans employee benefits administration, public safety personnel management, and operational occupational health programs rather than clinical surgical procedures.

The recent opportunities cluster in the Southwest and West, with activity in Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington State (Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County). Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit determinations (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry terminals (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026), and the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out management through Centers of Excellence networks (HR26753, due October 7, 2026). The code shows no recent activity aligned with vascular surgical procedures or clinical implant procurement.
