UNSPSC 85512529: Bypass abdominal aorta to right internal iliac artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass abdominal aorta to right internal iliac artery 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 04100K9

UNSPSC 85512529, Bypass abdominal aorta to right internal iliac artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach (Commodity), does not align with state and local procurement activity as currently published. The code describes a specific surgical vascular procedure; recent state and local opportunities tagged under this UNSPSC code solicit occupational medical surveillance services, disability benefit medical evaluations, surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits for city employees, pharmacy benefit management, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve the vascular bypass procedure the code nominates.

The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the breadth of medical administration and staffing services appearing in the recent-opportunities block suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or that this code has been repurposed as a catch-all for health-services procurement within certain state and local procurement systems. No opportunities in the block describe provision, implantation, or clinical delivery of the procedure itself. Business development professionals should verify whether this code is in active use for vascular surgical procedures in their target jurisdictions before committing pursuit resources; the recent posting activity does not support a direct match.
