This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left internal iliac artery to right internal iliac 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 041F0Z9

UNSPSC 85512011 Bypass left internal iliac artery to right internal iliac artery, open approach is a Commodity code with minimal relevance to state and local government procurement. The recent opportunities tagged under this code show a mismatch between the code's nominal scope—a surgical procedure nomenclature—and actual state and local buying activity. The five recent opportunities record medical evaluation services (Phoenix Retirement Office), surgical benefit carve-outs (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Ferries), youth detention healthcare (Harris County Juvenile Probation), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (Santa Clara Health System). None of these solicitations seek the specific vascular surgical procedure named in the code; instead, they address medical administration, benefit design, occupational health oversight, detention healthcare, pharmacy logistics, and temporary clinical staffing. The code appears to have been misapplied across a broad range of health and human services procurement activities that do not correspond to a discrete surgical intervention.

The issuing bodies span county health systems (Santa Clara, Collier, Harris), municipal retirement offices (Phoenix), state agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), and city employee benefits programs (Long Beach). Geographic activity includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no clear concentration. Because the code shows no coherent recent activity matching its stated scope, opportunities in this taxonomy tier are not actionable for vendors offering vascular surgical procedures or related clinical services to state and local governments. The code mismatch suggests either systematic tagging errors in the underlying procurement database or that UNSPSC 85512011 is not the appropriate taxonomy entry for state and local health services procurement.
