UNSPSC 85521537: Bypass right vertebral vein to upper vein with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right vertebral vein to upper vein with autologous tissue 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 051R47Y

UNSPSC 85521537, Bypass right vertebral vein to upper vein with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that appears in state and local procurement records with minimal relevance to actual buying activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the six recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code reflect procurement for occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefits carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involves the vascular bypass procedure the code name specifies. State and local governments are not soliciting this surgical service directly; instead, they are contracting for administrative health services, benefits management, and medical staffing support roles that may encompass or reference multiple clinical procedures as part of broader health system operations.

The geographic and issuing-body spread across recent opportunities spans Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara Health System), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), but the code assignment does not align with the work being solicited. The Phoenix Fire Pension Board and Phoenix Police Pension Board issued an RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, at $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Ferries issued an RFQ for occupational medical surveillance services with response due October 9, 2026, and a pre-bid conference held August 31, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System solicited proposals for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories with response due October 7, 2026. The code shows little meaningful recent activity in state and local procurement aligned with its stated surgical procedure scope, and vendors should verify actual scope before pursuing opportunities nominally tagged to this code.
