UNSPSC 85512401: Bypass splenic artery to bilateral renal artery, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass splenic artery to bilateral renal 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 04140Z5

UNSPSC 85512401, Bypass splenic artery to bilateral renal artery, open approach, is a Commodity code representing a specific surgical procedure code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The source shows no state or local government solicitations purchasing this surgical procedure directly. Instead, recent opportunities tagged under or near this code reflect procurement of occupational health services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, emergency and specialty medical care for detained youth, and surgical benefit carve-out programs — none of which involve the specific vascular bypass procedure named in the code. The disconnect suggests either a misclassification of opportunities under this code or that state and local procurement offices use UNSPSC 85512401 as an umbrella tag for broader health services procurement that extends well beyond the nominal procedure scope.

The recent activity that does appear under this code cluster spans multiple issuing bodies including city retirement systems (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), municipal health plans (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile detention (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), county human resources (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and regional health systems (County of Santa Clara Health System). Geographic activity includes Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services with a due date of October 16, 2026 and a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the City of Long Beach's RFP (HR26753) for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits with proposals due October 7, 2026; and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services with proposals due October 9, 2026. This code appears to show low relevance to the actual work being procured and merits revalidation against the issuing body's intended coding.
