UNSPSC 85512134: Bypass right internal iliac artery to lower extremity artery with autologous arterial tissue, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right internal iliac artery to lower extremity artery with autologous arterial 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 041E0AQ

UNSPSC 85512134 Bypass right internal iliac artery to lower extremity artery with autologous arterial tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code show little alignment with that nominal scope. The opportunities instead reflect health services procurement across multiple jurisdictions — independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension determinations, occupational medical surveillance programs, specialty surgical care networks, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical care for detained youth. None of these solicitations involve the vascular bypass procedure named in the code. This mismatch suggests either a data-classification error at the posting source or that the code is being used as a catch-all for miscellaneous health services contracting. State and local buyers posting under this code include city retirement offices, state transportation departments, county health systems, county probation departments, and municipal employee benefits offices — a mix of administrative, operational, and custodial health service needs rather than surgical procedure procurement.

The recent opportunities span three states: Arizona (Phoenix Retirement Office independent medical evaluation RFP due October 16, 2026), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026), California (City of Long Beach surgical carve-out benefit RFP due October 7, 2026, and Santa Clara County Health System temporary health professional staffing RFP due October 7, 2026), Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefit management RFP originally due April 9, 2026), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department medical services RFI due September 25, 2026). The code shows no clear pattern of repeat or concentrated activity — each recent opportunity represents a distinct agency, service line, and geographic location. Given the procedural mismatch between the code name and the work actually being posted, this code does not appear to be a reliable signal for pursuing state and local health services contracting opportunities.
