UNSPSC 85521642 Reposition azygos vein, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The five recent opportunities tagged under this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county correctional facility, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve surgical procedures or vascular interventions. The mismatch between the code's clinical descriptor and the opportunities posted suggests either a systematic tagging error in the source system or that state and local procurement databases are applying medical procedure codes to health service contracts without alignment to the UNSPSC taxonomy's intended scope.

No concrete evidence of state and local procurement demand under this Commodity code exists in the recent opportunities block. The opportunities identified originate from Muscogee County (Georgia), Collier County (Florida), Monroe County (Florida), San Mateo County (California), and Santa Monica (California), but they address managed health services, pharmacy administration, and medical direction — administrative and service-delivery functions rather than surgical supplies or procedure-specific offerings. A business development professional evaluating pursuit under this code should clarify the actual buying patterns in state and local healthcare procurement systems before committing resources, as the current tagging does not reflect genuine demand for the code's stated product or service line.
