UNSPSC 85515637: Bypass right popliteal artery to lower extremity artery, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right popliteal artery to lower extremity 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 041M0ZQ

UNSPSC 85515637 Bypass right popliteal artery to lower extremity artery, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—a specific vascular surgical procedure—does not align with recent state and local procurement activity posted under it. The six opportunities in the recent-contract block span independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for health plans, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations concern popliteal artery bypass procedures or vascular surgery procurement. The issuing bodies include a city retirement office (Phoenix), a municipal government (Long Beach), a state transportation agency (Washington), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County), a county health system (Collier County and Santa Clara County), spanning Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The code shows little relevant recent activity; the mismatch between the code's surgical-procedure title and the actual health services and administrative support work being solicited suggests either a classification error in the state or local procurement systems or a misapplication of the code to opportunities outside its intended scope.

The recent opportunities posted under this code address health plan administration, occupational and disability medical assessment, and staffing rather than surgical procedures. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office issued an RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services with a response deadline of October 16, 2026 and a five-year contract value of $750,000 beginning February 3, 2027. The Washington State Department of Transportation issued an RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations with a response deadline of October 9, 2026, a two-year initial term, and optional extensions. The County of Santa Clara Health System solicited temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories with responses due October 7, 2026 on a non-exclusive, multiple-award, five-year qualified vendor list. These are health services procurement vehicles, not surgical procedure acquisitions.
