This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass intracranial vein to upper vein with autologous venous tissue, open approach.

UNSPSC 85521154 Bypass intracranial vein to upper vein with autologous venous tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific neurosurgical procedure, but the most recent opportunities tagged under this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-out networks, and youth detention healthcare services—none of which involve intracranial vein bypass procedures. The mismatch suggests either a miscoding of opportunities or a gap between the nominal scope of the code and current procurement practice.

The recent opportunities under this code are issued by diverse state and local bodies, including the Washington State Department of Transportation (ferries division), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), the County of Santa Clara Health System (California), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas). Geographic activity spans Washington, California, Arizona, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026); Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services (due April 9, 2026, covering approximately $8.7 million in historical annual spending); the County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award qualification pool for temporary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026); the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting public safety pension disability determinations (due October 16, 2026, with a five-year term and $750,000 maximum contract value); and the City of Long Beach's RFP for a surgical procedure carve-out benefit program with Centers of Excellence (due October 7, 2026, targeted for go-live April 1, 2027). The code shows little relevant recent activity and does not reflect active state and local procurement for the procedure it nominally describes.
