UNSPSC 85511239: Replacement of left colic artery with autologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left colic artery with autologous 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 04R707Z

UNSPSC 85511239 Replacement of left colic artery with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local government procurement activity. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency services for detained youth — none of which involve arterial replacement or vascular surgery in the code's sense. This mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in the source data or that the code has been applied too broadly to capture health-services contracting more generally.

The issuing bodies include city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal health plans and benefits administration (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county probation and health systems (Harris County, Santa Clara County Health System, Collier County), and special-purpose public health authorities. Geographic activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas across the recent opportunities block. No representative opportunities directly support the code's stated scope; the closest substantial recent activity includes the Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026) and the Phoenix Retirement Office independent medical evaluation services RFP (due October 16, 2026), both of which involve physician-led evaluations and record management but fall outside vascular surgery. The code as currently tagged does not represent a coherent procurement opportunity set, and vendors should verify coding alignment before pursuing work under this designation.
