UNSPSC 85515671: Bypass right femoral artery to posterior tibial artery, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right femoral artery to posterior tibial 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 041K0ZN

UNSPSC 85515671, Bypass right femoral artery to posterior tibial artery, open approach, is a Commodity code that does not map to recent state and local procurement activity. The code names a specific surgical procedure — a vascular bypass graft — yet the recent opportunities posted under this classification procure occupational medical examinations, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, specialty surgical carve-out networks, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and pediatric detention healthcare services. None of these scopes involve the named procedure or peripheral vascular surgery. The mismatch suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or that the UNSPSC taxonomy entry itself does not reflect how state and local governments use the code in practice.

The source contains no evidence of state and local procurement demand for vascular bypass grafts or related surgical implants. If firms pursue this code, they should verify with issuing bodies whether opportunities are actually tagged under 85515671 or whether the tagging reflects administrative error rather than genuine procurement need for the specified procedure.
