UNSPSC 85494528: Bypass superior vena cava to pulmonary trunk with autologous venous tissue, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass superior vena cava to pulmonary trunk with autologous venous tissue, 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 021V09P

UNSPSC 85494528 Bypass superior vena cava to pulmonary trunk with autologous venous tissue, open approach is a Commodity code describing a specific surgical procedure; however, recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code shows no direct alignment with the procedure named. The recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out benefits for municipal employees, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which describe the vascular surgical intervention the code nominally specifies. State and local procurement offices appear to have applied this code inconsistently or as a proxy for general medical services administration rather than as a procedure-specific classification.

The issuing bodies include state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, County of Santa Clara Health System), cities (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), and special health districts or systems. The geographic spread spans Washington, Texas, Florida, California, and Arizona. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations with proposals due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability determinations with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years and proposals due October 16, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories with proposals due October 7, 2026. Because the code's nominal scope and actual procurement activity diverge substantially, treating this code as a reliable signal for capturing relevant state and local medical contracting opportunities would be unproductive.
