UNSPSC 85521443: Replacement of left internal jugular vein with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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, 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 05RN4JZ

UNSPSC 85521443 Replacement of left internal jugular vein with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code showing minimal alignment between its medical device and procedure nomenclature and the actual scope of state and local government procurement activity under this classification. The recent opportunities tagged to this code do not involve vascular surgical implants or percutaneous endoscopic procedures; instead, they span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical care carve-out programs for employee health plans, temporary clinical staffing, and specialty healthcare delivery for detained youth. State and local procurement offices are using this code to tag health services contracting across multiple domains—employee and retiree medical benefits administration, occupational health compliance, retirement disability determinations, and facility-based acute care—rather than procurement of the specific surgical device or procedure the code nominally describes.

The issuing-body mix reflects the diversity of state and local health spending: the Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of Washington State Ferries), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and Santa Clara County Health System. Recent activity concentrates in California, Arizona, Washington, and Florida. Representative opportunities include the Washington State Ferries' occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026) for baseline and periodic medical examinations across 14 ferry terminal and shipyard locations under occupational medicine physician supervision; the City of Phoenix's independent medical evaluation RFP (due October 16, 2026) for disability benefit application medical record summaries and scheduling for approximately 75 annual cases at $750,000 over five years; and the City of Long Beach's surgical carve-out RFP (due October 7, 2026) for Centers of Excellence networks covering knee, hip, spine, heart, and oncology procedures for approximately 3,800 active employees and retirees. The code shows little relevant recent activity for the specific vascular surgical implant scope its nomenclature describes.
