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 041E0AD

UNSPSC 85512141, Bypass right internal iliac artery to right external iliac artery with autologous arterial tissue, open approach, is a Commodity code whose nominal scope does not align with recent state and local contract activity. The code's surgical nomenclature describes a specific vascular surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code cover occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve vascular bypass surgery. The issuing bodies include state transportation departments, county pension boards, municipal retirement offices, county health systems, and juvenile justice authorities. This mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the breadth of medical administration and staffing services actually being solicited suggests the code has been applied inconsistently or that state procurement systems are classifying medical services more broadly than the UNSPSC taxonomy intends.

Recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The Washington State Department of Transportation sought occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 coastal locations with a pre-bid conference held August 31, 2026 and proposals due October 9, 2026 (RFP20260825). The City of Phoenix Retirement Office requested independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations with proposals due October 16, 2026 at $750,000 over five years (RTMRFP26001). The City of Long Beach issued an RFP for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits for approximately 3,800 PPO-enrolled employees with proposals due October 7, 2026 (HR26753). Collier County Board of County Commissioners solicited pharmacy benefit management services with historical spending at $8.7 million annually and an original deadline of April 9, 2026, now superseded. The County of Santa Clara Health System established a non-exclusive qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing across 13 clinical categories with proposals due October 7, 2026, offering no guaranteed work volume (RFSQHHSFY270052). Because the code itself does not describe the services being procured, use caution in bidding decisions and verify the actual scope through the RFP text rather than the code designation.
