UNSPSC 85515617: Bypass left popliteal artery to lower extremity artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left popliteal artery to lower extremity 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 041N0KQ

UNSPSC 85515617 Bypass left popliteal artery to lower extremity artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal surgical-procedure scope. The recent state and local opportunities posted under this code — independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — bear no operational connection to arterial bypass grafting or vascular surgery. The code appears to be a data-classification mismatch rather than a genuine procurement category in active use by state and local buyers.

No state and local purchasing opportunities for bypass left popliteal artery procedures, vascular surgical supplies, or related implants and materials appear in the recent record. The opportunities tagged to this code represent diverse health-plan administration, occupational health compliance, and staffing services — none of which involve the surgical procedure or the implantable medical devices the code nominally describes. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for state and local procurement purposes and verify classification before pursuing work under it.
