UNSPSC 85512006: Bypass left internal iliac artery to bilateral external iliac arteries, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left internal iliac artery to bilateral external iliac arteries, 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 041F0ZG

UNSPSC 85512006 Bypass left internal iliac artery to bilateral external iliac arteries, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this designation. The code nominally describes a specific surgical vascular procedure, yet the recent solicitations tagged with this code procure medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health examinations, surgical carve-out benefit programs, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which match the code's stated scope. This mismatch suggests either a systematic tagging error in the source data or that the code has been repurposed within particular procurement systems to classify broader healthcare services rather than a discrete surgical intervention.

The recent opportunities show activity from city retirement offices, county human resources divisions, state transportation departments, county health systems, and county juvenile probation departments across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office solicited independent medical evaluation services (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) for disability benefit determinations under Arizona's Public Safety Personnel Retirement System; the City of Long Beach solicited surgical procedure carve-out benefits for its PPO plan (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026); and the Washington State Department of Transportation's Ferries division sought occupational medical surveillance services across 14 Washington locations (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026). Collier County in Florida issued an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services (RFP 25-8414, with historical annual spending of approximately $8.7 million), and the County of Santa Clara Health System in California established a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). No procurement activity actually matches the vascular surgical procedure named in the code, making this classification unreliable for business development targeting.
