UNSPSC 85515652: Bypass right popliteal artery to lower extremity artery with autologous arterial tissue, 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 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 041M0AQ

UNSPSC 85515652 Bypass right popliteal artery to lower extremity artery with autologous arterial tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code—independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational health surveillance, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—involve administrative and clinical support services, not vascular surgical procedures. None of the six recent solicitations reference or procure the specific surgical intervention the code nominally describes.

The activity actually being bought under this code reflects state and local government demand for occupational health services, pension and disability medical assessments, pharmacy administration, and ancillary clinical staffing across multiple jurisdictions—Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County). Opportunities range from RFPs for independent medical evaluations and surgery carve-out networks to RFQs for occupational surveillance services and RFIs for emergency medical capacity. The geographic spread spans the Southwest, West Coast, and Southeast, with no standout concentration. Given the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurements, this code shows little relevant activity for firms pursuing vascular surgery service contracting. Procurement professionals should verify the correct UNSPSC code classification before pursuing opportunities in this category.
