UNSPSC 85532244 Bypass left foot vein to lower vein with autologous arterial tissue, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity bears little relationship to the code's nominal medical procedure nomenclature. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not solicit the specific surgical service the code names. Instead, state and local buyers are using this Commodity code to tag medical services, health benefits administration, pharmacy benefit management, occupational surveillance, and staffing—procurement categories that fall far outside the scope of a defined surgical bypass procedure. The mismatch between the code's name and what is actually being bought signals either data quality issues in the tagging system or a systematic miscoding of health-related services under this particular Commodity identifier.

The recent activity spans multiple issuing bodies across four states: the City of Phoenix (Arizona) solicited independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations with a $750,000 five-year maximum; the City of Long Beach (California) requested proposals for surgical carve-out benefits and Centers of Excellence networks; the Washington State Department of Transportation requested occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas) issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth; and Collier County, Florida sought pharmacy benefit management administration with historical annual spend around $8.7 million. The County of Santa Clara Health System (California) separately opened a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing. The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Given the persistent mismatch between the code's procedure-specific name and the actual scope of work being procured, this Commodity code should be monitored for clarification or retagging rather than pursued as a reliable procurement vehicle for the stated surgical service.
