This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right popliteal artery to lower extremity vein with autologous arterial tissue, 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 041M0AS

UNSPSC 85515651 Bypass right popliteal artery to lower extremity vein with autologous arterial tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that the source does not support with relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure; however, the six recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code solicit medical evaluation services (independent disability medical evaluations, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty care for detained youth), pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with procurement of the specific vascular bypass procedure named in the code. The mismatch between the code's procedural scope and the actual services being solicited suggests either a cataloging error in the source or a systematic misapplication of this commodity code to medical-services opportunities that belong in different codes.

The issuing bodies span state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries), county governments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, County of Santa Clara Health System), and city retirement offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office). Recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP20260825 for occupational medical surveillance across 14 Washington ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026), the City of Long Beach HR26753 for surgical procedure carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence (due October 7, 2026, targeted go-live April 1, 2027), Collier County RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with historical spending around $8.7 million annually, and the County of Santa Clara Health System RFSQHHSFY270052 for a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). This code shows no meaningful activity for the surgical procedure it nominally describes and warrants reclassification or exclusion pending correction of the source data.
