UNSPSC 85514023: Bypass left femoral artery to lower extremity artery with autologous arterial tissue, 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 autologous arterial tissue, 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 041L4AQ

UNSPSC 85514023 Bypass left femoral artery to lower extremity artery with autologous arterial tissue, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that, in recent state and local procurement activity, does not map to the specific surgical procedure its code name describes. Instead, the code has been applied to a range of health-related services including independent medical evaluation services, surgery benefit carve-out program administration, occupational medical surveillance, specialty medical care delivery in detention settings, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve the vascular surgical intervention the code nominally covers. The recent opportunities show state and local jurisdictions—including city retirement offices, municipal health plans, state transportation departments, county probation systems, and county health systems—using the code to procure broadly across occupational health screening, benefits administration, and clinical staffing functions. The mismatch between the code's title and the work actually being bought suggests either systematic miscoding in state and local procurement databases or assignment of a surgical code to cover administrative and occupational health functions that fall outside its intended scope.

The geographic spread of recent activity spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County). Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services with a $750,000 maximum contract value over five years (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026 with a pre-bid conference), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award vehicle for temporary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026). The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal commodity definition; firms pursuing state and local opportunities tagged under this code should verify the actual scope of work in each solicitation rather than relying on the code name alone.
