UNSPSC 85514901: Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in lower artery, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in lower artery, external 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 04WYXKZ

UNSPSC 85514901 Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in lower artery, external approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a vascular surgical procedure involving replacement of non-biological artery material; however, the six most recent opportunities tagged to this code document entirely different work: independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out networks, occupational medical surveillance, juvenile detention medical care, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these activities align with vascular tissue substitution or surgical implantation services that state and local governments would procure directly. The mismatch suggests either systematic tagging errors or that state and local procurement offices are not currently soliciting vascular surgical procedures or tissue-substitute materials under this code.

The recent opportunities span diverse issuing bodies—city retirement offices, municipal human resources divisions, state transportation departments, county probation services, and county health systems across Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas—but do not cohere around the code's stated scope. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for medical record review and disability examination scheduling (due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical Centers of Excellence networks (due October 7, 2026), and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (due October 9, 2026) represent the most recent and detailed solicitations; none involve procurement of vascular tissue substitutes or related surgical materials. Firms evaluating opportunities under this code should recognize that current state and local activity does not reflect the code's nominal medical device or tissue-substitute category.
