UNSPSC 85514016: Bypass left femoral artery to lower extremity artery with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left femoral artery to lower extremity artery with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 041L4JQ

UNSPSC 85514016 Bypass left femoral artery to lower extremity artery with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure code, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code bears no operational relationship to vascular surgery. Instead, the code appears to be systematically misapplied to a range of occupational health, benefits administration, and clinical staffing services. The actual work being solicited includes independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out networks for government employee health plans, specialty medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing for ancillary clinical roles. This mismatch suggests the code is either incorrectly assigned in state and local procurement systems or represents a data classification error rather than authentic procurement demand for the surgical procedure itself.

Activity appears across multiple states and jurisdictions: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), City of Long Beach (California), Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit determinations for fire and police pension boards (due October 16, 2026 at $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminals (due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award vehicle for temporary ancillary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026). Because the opportunities are unrelated to the code's nominal surgical scope, this code should not be relied upon as a true signal of vascular surgery procurement at the state and local level.
