UNSPSC 85521553: Bypass intracranial vein to upper vein with autologous arterial tissue, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass intracranial vein to upper vein with autologous arterial tissue, 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 051L4AY

UNSPSC 85521553 Bypass intracranial vein to upper vein with autologous arterial tissue, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not map to recent state and local procurement activity in the provided source. The code describes a specific surgical procedure; the recent opportunities posted under this code by state and local jurisdictions span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, Centers of Excellence surgery carve-outs, and youth detention healthcare—none of which involve intracranial bypass procedures. This mismatch suggests the code has been applied incorrectly to health-services contracts that fall outside its clinical scope, or that the tagging reflects administrative categorization rather than the actual service being procured.

The issuing bodies in the recent opportunities include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county and city governments (Collier County, Harris County, City of Long Beach, City of Phoenix), and regional health systems (Santa Clara Health System). The geographic spread covers Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 total maximum compensation over five years) and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations (due October 9, 2026, two-year term with up to five one-year extensions). Given the procedural mismatch, this code does not represent a viable procurement pathway for vendors supplying or supporting intracranial surgical services to state and local buyers.
