UNSPSC 85521546: Bypass right internal jugular vein to upper vein with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right internal jugular vein to upper 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 051M4JY

UNSPSC 85521546 Bypass right internal jugular vein to upper vein with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local contract opportunities posted under this code. The recent opportunities show no direct relevance to the surgical procedure named in the code's abstract definition. Instead, the opportunities reflect demand for occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, Centers of Excellence surgical networks, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which involve the specific vascular surgical procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch between the code's medical-device-procedure title and the actual scope of state and local work posted under it suggests either a classification error in the source data or a divergence between the code's intended scope and its practical application in state and local procurement systems.

The issuing bodies posting under this code span county health systems, city retirement offices, state transportation departments, county juvenile justice authorities, and county commissioners' procurement divisions—a heterogeneous mix typical of healthcare-adjacent services rather than surgical implant procurement. Recent activity appears in Arizona (Phoenix Fire and Police Pension Boards), California (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), Washington State (Department of Transportation, Ferries Division), Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and Florida (Collier County). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations (responses due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations (responses due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (responses due October 7, 2026). The code shows little relevant recent activity tied to its nominal scope.
