This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left popliteal artery to peroneal artery, 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 041N0ZM

UNSPSC 85515614 Bypass left popliteal artery to peroneal artery, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent solicitations posted under this code do not involve vascular surgery procurement or bypass graft services. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code cover occupational and disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty surgical care through Centers of Excellence networks, and emergency services for youth in detention—none of which involve popliteal-to-peroneal bypass procedures. The issuing bodies include county health systems, city retirement offices, state transportation departments, county probation agencies, and municipalities, spanning health plan administration, occupational health compliance, disability benefit determination, and detention-setting acute care. The code appears to reflect a misclassification or data entry error rather than a coherent procurement category.

Recent state and local activity under this code is geographically dispersed across Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP (due October 16, 2026) for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit applications for the Phoenix Fire and Police Pension Boards at a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP (due October 9, 2026) for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations; the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQ (due October 7, 2026) to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories; and the City of Long Beach's RFP (due October 7, 2026) for surgical procedure carve-out benefit management offering Centers of Excellence networks for orthopedic, spine, cardiac, and oncology procedures. The mismatch between the code's nominal surgical focus and the actual work being solicited signals that vendors should verify code assignment before pursuing opportunities tagged to this number.
