UNSPSC 85512307: Bypass right common iliac artery to right external iliac artery, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right common iliac artery to right external iliac 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 041C0ZD

UNSPSC 85512307 Bypass right common iliac artery to right external iliac artery, open approach (Commodity) does not align with the state and local procurement activity visible in recent solicitations. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code reflect broader healthcare administration, occupational medicine, pharmacy management, and clinical staffing services—none of which involve the vascular surgical intervention the code name specifies. The City of Phoenix is soliciting independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations; the City of Long Beach is requesting surgical procedure carve-out and Centers of Excellence network management; the Washington State Department of Transportation is seeking occupational medical surveillance; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department is requesting information on emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth; Collier County is procuring pharmacy benefit management; and Santa Clara County Health System is building a temporary health professional staffing pool. None of these solicitations involve bypass surgery or vascular surgical procedures.

The mismatch between code name and recent procurement activity signals either a categorical coding error in the source data or that this code is not actively used by state and local buyers for its nominal scope. No recent opportunities appear to address vascular bypass surgery, arterial reconstruction services, or related surgical procedures. Firms pursuing state and local healthcare contracts should verify the correct UNSPSC classification for their service lines before responding to opportunities tagged with this code, as the current tagging does not reflect meaningful alignment with typical procurement activity in the Commodity's stated domain.
