This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right 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 04R607Z

UNSPSC 85511242 Replacement of right colic artery with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal taxonomy label does not align with actual state and local procurement activity under this classification. Recent opportunities tagged with this code do not solicit medical device procurement, surgical implants, or vascular reconstruction materials; instead, they solicit administrative health services, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, and employee benefit plan administration. The code shows little relevant recent activity for procurement professionals pursuing medical device or surgical supply contracts.

Six recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code span Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026), California (City of Long Beach RFP for surgical procedure carve-out benefits due October 7, 2026; County of Santa Clara Health System RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026; Collier County Board of County Commissioners RFP for pharmacy benefit management services), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation WSF RFP for occupational medical surveillance due October 9, 2026), Florida, and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth due September 25, 2026). Issuing bodies include municipal retirement systems, county governments, state transportation agencies, and county health systems. The mismatch between the code's nomenclature and the services actually being purchased suggests either miscoding by procurement offices or taxonomic obsolescence; firms pursuing vascular implants or surgical reconstruction materials should verify code alignment directly with issuing bodies rather than relying on this classification as a reliable opportunity signal.
