UNSPSC 85512205: Bypass left common 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 common 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 041D0ZG

UNSPSC 85512205 Bypass left common iliac artery to bilateral external iliac arteries, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical vascular procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows no alignment with its technical name. The most recent solicitations posted under this code span independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, occupational health surveillance, surgical benefits carve-out programs for municipal employees, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve the vascular bypass procedure the code nominally describes. This mismatch suggests the code has been applied inconsistently or incorrectly to health care service procurement records in the state and local system.

The issuing bodies include city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal human resources departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System), county juvenile justice departments (Harris County), and county commissioners' offices (Collier County). Geographic spread across recent opportunities includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services with a $750,000 five-year contract and an October 16, 2026 response deadline, the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations with proposals due October 9, 2026, and the Santa Clara County Health System's non-exclusive qualified-vendor-pool RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories with an October 7, 2026 deadline. Given the code's vascular-surgery label and the absence of relevant opportunities, this code appears to see little or no actual activity matching its nominated scope in state and local procurement.
