This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left common iliac artery to bilateral common iliac arteries with autologous arterial tissue, 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 041D0A8

UNSPSC 85512268 Bypass left common iliac artery to bilateral common iliac arteries with autologous arterial tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code span independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs, and emergency medical services for youth in detention—none of which involve vascular surgical procedures or arterial bypass grafting. The code appears to be a procedural medical taxonomy entry that state and local procurement systems have applied inconsistently or incorrectly to administrative healthcare and staffing services.

Recent opportunities show activity across multiple states and issuing bodies including city retirement offices (Phoenix), county health systems (Santa Clara), county governments (Collier County, Harris County), state transportation authorities (Washington State Department of Transportation), and municipal governments (City of Long Beach). Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) to support disability benefit determinations for public safety personnel, the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) covering 14 ferry terminal locations, and the County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award RFSQ for temporary ancillary clinical staffing (due October 7, 2026). The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement activity suggests that this code is not a reliable indicator of vascular surgery contracting opportunities at the state and local level.
