UNSPSC 85512004: Bypass left internal iliac artery to left femoral artery, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left internal iliac artery to left femoral artery, 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 041F0ZJ

UNSPSC 85512004 Bypass left internal iliac artery to left femoral artery, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity shows no substantive alignment with vascular surgical services. The six recent opportunities posted between July and September 2026 span independent medical evaluations for disability benefit determinations, surgical procedure carve-out benefit programs for government employees, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which correspond to the vascular bypass procedure named in the code. The mismatch suggests this code has been applied to procurement records where it does not reflect the actual work being solicited.

The geographic spread of the misaligned opportunities includes Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), and Texas (Harris County), but these records do not support procurement activity specific to the vascular surgical service this code describes. State and local governments do procure medical services and staffing extensively, but the Commodity code 85512004 does not appear to capture that activity accurately in recent solicitations. Business development professionals should verify whether this code is actively used in state and local procurement workflows or has been superseded by broader medical-services classifications within the UNSPSC hierarchy.
