This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right popliteal artery to lower extremity vein with synthetic substitute, open approach.

UNSPSC 85515646 Bypass right popliteal artery to lower extremity vein with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure—a vascular bypass graft—yet the most recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical carve-out benefits for municipal employees, and emergency medical services for youth in detention. None of these solicitations involve vascular surgical procedures or related implants and supplies.

State and local procurement is not treating this code as a vehicle for procuring vascular bypass services or associated devices. The mismatch between the code's clinical taxonomy and the actual work being solicited suggests either a data-classification error in the underlying UNSPSC assignment or that this code does not currently serve as a meaningful procurement vehicle for state and local buyers. No substantive opportunity activity exists under this code for vascular surgery services, synthetic grafts, or related supplies.
