UNSPSC 85514838: Bypass abdominal aorta to abdominal aorta with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass abdominal aorta to abdominal aorta with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 04104K0

UNSPSC 85514838 Bypass abdominal aorta to abdominal aorta with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code whose name does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged to it. The code shows no relevant recent opportunities; recent solicitations posted under this code include disability medical evaluations for public safety pension benefit determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing placements. These procurement areas span occupational health programs, benefits administration, institutional healthcare delivery, and clinical staffing—none of which correspond to the specific surgical procedure named in the code taxonomy.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual state and local buying activity suggests either a systematic tagging error in the underlying procurement data or that the code is not in active use for the services state and local bodies currently contract for under this designation. Business development activity keyed to this code should verify the correct UNSPSC classification through the issuing agencies or their procurement documentation before pursuing opportunities, as reliance on the current code assignment will likely result in misaligned proposal development and scope misinterpretation.
