This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left internal jugular vein to upper vein with nonautologous 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 051N0KY

UNSPSC 85521139 Bypass left internal jugular vein to upper vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure. The recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show little direct alignment with the nominal code scope. Instead, the posted solicitations cluster around occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit program management, pharmacy benefit administration, temporary health professional staffing placement, and specialty medical services for detained youth. None of these activities involve the vascular bypass procedure the code nominally describes. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal health systems (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), state transportation departments (Washington), county probation departments (Harris County), and county procurement offices acting on behalf of health consortia (Collier County). The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas, with no clear concentration.

Recent posted opportunities under this code include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit determinations, due October 16, 2026; the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations, due October 9, 2026; the City of Long Beach RFP (HR26753) for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence, due October 7, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System RFSQ (RFSQHHSFY270052) to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing, due October 7, 2026. The mismatch between the code's nominal procedure-specific content and the actual scope of work being solicited suggests this code was applied incorrectly by the issuing bodies or that the code taxonomy does not map cleanly to the administrative and staffing services these jurisdictions are buying. The code shows low relevance to vendors pursuing state and local opportunities in its stated technical domain.
