UNSPSC 85516422: Bypass left popliteal artery to lower extremity artery with autologous venous tissue, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left popliteal artery to lower extremity artery with autologous venous tissue, percutaneous endoscopic 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 041N49Q

UNSPSC 85516422 Bypass left popliteal artery to lower extremity artery with autologous venous tissue, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not correspond to the work actually being solicited under it in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs, health professional temporary staffing, and emergency and specialty medical services for youth in custody. None of these solicitations involve popliteal artery bypass procedures or any comparable vascular surgery services. The misalignment suggests either a systematic data-quality issue in how state and local procurement offices are tagging opportunities, or that this code is being applied as a catch-all for general healthcare services procurement rather than as a Commodity code designating a specific surgical intervention. Code activity does not reflect genuine procurement demand for the procedure named in the UNSPSC taxonomy.

The opportunities that carry this code tag come from 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 municipalities (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). Geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's request for independent medical evaluation services for approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications, due October 16, 2026 (RFP RTMRFP26001); the Washington State Department of Transportation's solicitation for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations, due October 9, 2026 (RFP RFP20260825 with pre-bid conference August 31, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories, due October 7, 2026 (non-exclusive, multiple-award pool with no guaranteed work volume). No recent opportunities reflect procurement of the procedure this code is named for.
