UNSPSC 85515050: Bypass right common iliac artery to lower artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right common iliac artery to lower artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open 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 041C0KR

UNSPSC 85515050, Bypass right common iliac artery to lower artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach, is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual procurement activity tagged under it in recent state and local solicitations. The recent opportunities show no vascular surgical procedure procurement; instead, they span occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention medical services—none of which align with the specific arterial bypass procedure named in the code. The code shows no relevant recent activity for firms pursuing vascular or cardiac surgical services under state and local procurement channels.

No state or local issuing body has recently posted work soliciting arterial bypass procedures or related implantable medical devices under this code. The mismatch between the Commodity code's clinical specificity and the operational health-services procurement appearing in the tagged opportunities suggests either a data-classification error or that state and local governments do not use this code to source individual surgical procedures through RFP, RFQ, or IFB channels. Firms targeting vascular device or surgical service procurement at the state and local level should verify code assignment with issuing bodies directly rather than relying on this Commodity classification.
