UNSPSC 85512022: Bypass left internal iliac artery to right internal iliac artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

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 with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 041F0K9

UNSPSC 85512022 Bypass left internal iliac artery to right internal iliac artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that bears no relevance to actual state and local government procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code encompass occupational health surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs, and pediatric detention health services—none of which are surgical procedures or vascular interventions. The code itself describes a specific surgical technique; state and local procurement under the nominal code does not exist. The mislabeling appears systematic and reflects a misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy entry and the work agencies are actually buying.

No decision-relevant activity supports pursuit under this code. Prospective vendors should treat this as a taxonomy error rather than a market signal. The recent state and local opportunities posted against this number—spanning the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System—are genuine procurement events, but they target medical services contracting, staffing, and benefit administration, not surgical procedure codes. Verify the correct UNSPSC classification for any line of business before allocating business development effort.
