This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left common iliac artery to mesenteric 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 041D0Z2

UNSPSC 85512217 Bypass left common iliac artery to mesenteric artery, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical vascular procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code classify inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which align with the narrow surgical intervention the code purports to name. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the state and local procurement systems tagging these opportunities or a systematic miscoding of health services under this UNSPSC number.

The issuing bodies spanning the opportunities are a county jail system (Muscogee County, Georgia), two county human resources and benefits programs (Collier County, Florida and Monroe County, Florida), a county behavioral health department (San Mateo County, California), and a municipal fire department (Santa Monica, California). The geographic spread includes Georgia, Florida, and California. Because the opportunities do not actually procure the service the code describes, this code is not a reliable signal for surgical vascular procedure solicitation in state and local government, and firms targeting medical services contracts should verify the UNSPSC coding in each individual solicitation rather than rely on this code's stated scope.
