UNSPSC 85512221: Bypass left common iliac artery to bilateral femoral arteries with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left common iliac artery to bilateral femoral arteries 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 041D0KK

UNSPSC 85512221, Bypass left common iliac artery to bilateral femoral arteries with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach, is a Commodity code that does not map meaningfully to state and local government procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure — a vascular bypass — that falls within clinical medicine and is not a product or service state and local jurisdictions routinely solicit or contract to deliver. Recent state and local opportunities tagged with this code actually seek occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out networks, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty emergency care for detained youth — none of which involve the named surgical procedure.

State and local activity under this code shows little relevant recent procurement. The six opportunities in the dataset span Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas issuing bodies (city retirement boards, county health systems, state transportation departments, and county juvenile probation), but the work solicited bears no substantive connection to the code's nominal scope. The mismatch suggests either a coding error in the source data or use of the code as a placeholder for health-services-related acquisitions without regard to specificity. Bidders should verify code assignment independently before pursuing opportunities tagged under 85512221 and treat the code as inactive for practical business development purposes.
