UNSPSC 85514862: Bypass abdominal aorta to bilateral external iliac arteries with autologous arterial tissue, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass abdominal aorta to bilateral external iliac arteries 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 04104AG

UNSPSC 85514862 Bypass abdominal aorta to bilateral external iliac arteries with autologous arterial tissue, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code nominally describing a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local contract activity under this code shows no alignment with that nominal scope. The opportunities posted under this code address occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability benefit determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical center-of-excellence networks, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve the vascular surgical procedure the code name specifies. The issuing bodies are diverse: state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and probation departments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, County of Santa Clara Health System, Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). This pattern suggests the code has been misapplied or serves as a catch-all category for health services procurement that does not fit more specific UNSPSC categories.

The geographic spread spans Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminals with proposals due October 9, 2026 (IFB format with cost-based scoring), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit determinations with proposals due October 16, 2026 at a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years, and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services with proposals due April 9, 2026 covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees and an estimated annual spending of $8.7 million. Business development professionals should verify UNSPSC code accuracy with the issuing body before pursuing opportunities under this code, as the mismatch between the code's surgical procedure name and the actual scope of work being procured creates classification risk.
