UNSPSC 85516463: Bypass right femoral artery to right femoral artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right femoral artery to right femoral artery, 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 041K4ZH

UNSPSC 85516463 (Bypass right femoral artery to right femoral artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach), a Commodity code, shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope as a specific surgical procedure. The recent opportunities tagged to this code involve occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, specialty surgical carve-out benefit programs for employee health plans, temporary health professional staffing, and juvenile detention medical services — none of which represent procurement of the particular vascular bypass procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in the tagging of these opportunities or a systematic misalignment between the code taxonomy and how state and local procurement offices classify healthcare service contracts.

The geographic distribution of the six opportunities spans Washington, Arizona, California, and Florida, with issuing bodies including state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and cities (Phoenix, Long Beach). Representative recent activity includes the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026, the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP due October 16, 2026, and the City of Long Beach's surgical benefit carve-out RFP due October 7, 2026. The code currently reflects healthcare administrative and service procurement rather than discrete surgical procedures, indicating either that surgical-procedure-specific codes are rarely used by state and local buyers or that this particular code is not the appropriate match for recent opportunities in the dataset.
