This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right external iliac vein to lower vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 061F0KY

UNSPSC 85532820 Bypass right external iliac vein to lower vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal name describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contracting activity tagged under this code shows little alignment with vascular surgery. Instead, the opportunities reflect procurement of occupational health and medical surveillance services, medical evaluation administration, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve vascular bypass procedures. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office is soliciting independent medical evaluation services including disability medical record summary preparation and scheduling of independent medical and psychiatric examinations for public safety personnel retirement determinations; the County of Santa Clara Health System is building a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing across audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, and other specialties; and the Washington State Department of Transportation is contracting for occupational medical surveillance services across ferry system locations. These opportunities span administrative health services, benefits management, and occupational medicine rather than surgical interventions. The mismatch between the code's procedural focus and the actual work being solicited suggests either a data-quality issue in how opportunities were tagged or that this code sees minimal genuine relevance to state and local procurement.

Recent activity is geographically distributed across Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington State (Department of Transportation), and Texas (Harris County), with no clear concentration. Representative current solicitations include the City of Phoenix RFP RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, with a maximum five-year contract value of $750,000 commencing February 3, 2027; the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP RFP20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026 with a pre-bid conference scheduled August 31, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System RFSQHHSFY270052 for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026 as a non-exclusive multiple-award qualification pool with no guaranteed volume. Given the procedural disconnect between the code definition and the procurements it actually covers, firms pursuing vascular surgical services should verify code alignment independently rather than rely on this category to surface relevant opportunities.
