UNSPSC 85521043: Replacement of left internal jugular vein with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left internal jugular vein with synthetic 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 05RN0JZ

UNSPSC 85521043 Replacement of left internal jugular vein with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity for state and local procurement purposes. The source contains six recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code, but none involve surgical implants, vascular procedures, or medical devices aligned with the code's nominal scope. Instead, the opportunities cover independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for government employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for ferry system workers, emergency and specialty medical services for youth in detention, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing. The mismatch between the code's stated scope—a specific surgical procedure using a synthetic vascular substitute—and the opportunities actually posted suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or a fundamental misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how state and local procurement offices classify healthcare service contracts. No recent opportunities solicit the implant, device, or surgical service the code nominally describes.

Given the absence of opportunities that match the code's actual commodity definition, no meaningful geographic concentration, issuing-body mix, or representative recent procurement activity under this code can be characterized for business development purposes. The code does not reflect active state and local demand for the service it names.
