UNSPSC 85512556: Bypass abdominal aorta to celiac artery with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass abdominal aorta to celiac artery with synthetic 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 04100J1

UNSPSC 85512556 Bypass abdominal aorta to celiac artery with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show little alignment with that narrow clinical scope. The opportunities instead reflect procurement of occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit carve-out programs — none of which involve the specific vascular bypass procedure named in the code. This mismatch suggests the code may be misapplied in state and local procurement systems, or that the opportunities have been tagged incorrectly. State and local buyers posting under this code include city retirement offices, county health systems, state transportation departments, county probation departments, and county boards of commissioners across multiple procurement functions.

The recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no clear geographic concentration. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit Centers of Excellence carve-out programs (HR26753, due October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, with pre-bid on August 31, 2026), and Collier County's RFP for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services (RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026, approximately $8.7 million annually). Given the disconnect between the code's nominal definition and the work actually being solicited, this code shows limited relevance to vendors pursuing state and local opportunities in the specific clinical procedure domain implied by the code number.
