UNSPSC 85514226: Bypass right external iliac artery to left femoral artery with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right external iliac artery to left femoral 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 041H4JJ

UNSPSC 85514226 (Bypass right external iliac artery to left femoral artery with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach), a Commodity code, does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical vascular procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it encompass independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical carve-out benefit program administration, occupational medical surveillance, specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve the surgical procedure named in the code. The disconnect suggests either a cataloging error in the tagging system or a misalignment between the code's technical medical specification and how state and local procurement offices are deploying it.

Recent activity shows no relevant solicitations directly purchasing or contracting for the vascular surgical procedure itself. The issuing bodies across the opportunities include city retirement offices, municipal health benefits administrators, state transportation departments, county juvenile probation systems, county human resources divisions, and health systems — none of which are soliciting for this specific arterial bypass surgery or its component materials. No geographic concentration, representative procedure-specific opportunities, or contracting patterns exist under this code in the current state and local market.
