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, 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 041M4AS

UNSPSC 85516441 Bypass right popliteal artery to lower extremity vein with autologous arterial tissue, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are procuring under this designation. The recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, surgical benefits carve-out administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty medical services for detained youth, and employee health plan administration—none of which describe vascular surgical procedures or any clinical intervention. The code appears to reflect a health system or benefits administrator's internal clinical taxonomy rather than a procurement category reflecting actual buy patterns.

The source documents recent activity from the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability determinations), the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (occupational medical surveillance), the City of Long Beach (surgical benefits carve-out for employee health plans), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty services for detained youth), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing). These jurisdictions span Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. The mismatch between the code's name and the actual procurement activity suggests the code may not be actionable for vendors pursuing state and local contracts; the underlying opportunities are better tracked through codes aligned with health plan administration, medical staffing services, or occupational health services rather than this specific clinical procedure designation.
