This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left innominate vein with autologous tissue substitute, open 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 05R407Z

UNSPSC 85521651 Replacement of left innominate vein with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure involving vascular reconstruction; however, the state and local opportunities tagged under it are unrelated to vascular surgery and do not fall within the code's procedural scope. The recent solicitations cover occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Ferries), independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations (City of Phoenix), specialty surgical carve-out benefits for employee health plans (City of Long Beach), pharmacy benefit management services (Collier County), emergency and specialty medical services for youth in custody (Harris County), and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (County of Santa Clara). None of these opportunities involve innominate vein replacement or comparable surgical procedures.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual opportunities suggests either data-entry error in the state and local procurement systems or that this Commodity code is rarely—if ever—used to tag purchases that match its clinical definition. State and local health systems, county human services agencies, and municipalities do contract for surgical services and medical procedures through their employee health plans, specialty networks, and detention healthcare programs, but those opportunities are not tagged to this code in the recent record. If pursuing work related to vascular surgery supplies, implants, or procedural services to state and local health systems, verify the applicable UNSPSC Family or Class code through the customer's actual solicitation language rather than relying on this Commodity designation.
