UNSPSC 85512227: Bypass left common iliac artery to bilateral internal iliac 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 internal iliac 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 041D0KC

UNSPSC 85512227 Bypass left common iliac artery to bilateral internal iliac arteries with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific vascular surgical procedure, but recent state and local opportunities posted under this code involve occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical network carve-outs, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which match the procedural specification in the code's taxonomy name.

The source includes no state and local contract opportunities that solicit the vascular bypass procedure itself or any surgical procedure matching the code's description. The six opportunities listed under this code taxonomy tag address medical administration, network management, and staffing rather than surgical implants or procedures. This mismatch suggests either a data classification error in the state and local procurement system or a systematic misalignment between how the code is applied and what it nominally represents. Vendors evaluating this code should verify the actual scope of work in any live solicitation before responding, as the UNSPSC taxonomy label does not reliably predict what services or products will be requested.
