UNSPSC 85514589 Bypass left common iliac artery to right common iliac artery with autologous venous tissue, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code describing a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code show little alignment with the code's nominal scope. The opportunities reflect a mismatch: they solicit occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve the specific vascular bypass procedure named in the code. State and local procurement offices appear to have tagged these opportunities with this code in error or as a general catch-all for medical services contracting, rather than pursuing procurement of the surgical procedure itself.

The issuing bodies span city retirement offices, county human resources divisions, state transportation departments, county juvenile justice systems, and regional health systems across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Recent activity shows Phoenix and Long Beach seeking medical evaluation and surgical benefit services; Washington State Department of Transportation requesting occupational health surveillance; Harris County Juvenile Probation seeking emergency and specialty medical care; Collier County seeking pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 2,400 employees; and Santa Clara County Health System establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing. Given the disconnect between the code's procedural definition and the work actually being solicited, firms pursuing state and local opportunities in surgical services, occupational health, disability medical evaluation, or pharmacy and workforce management should verify code alignment before responding, as this code appears to generate little targeted procurement activity for the specific bypass procedure it nominally describes.
