UNSPSC 85521774: Bypass right innominate vein to upper vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right innominate vein to upper vein with nonautologous 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 05130KY

UNSPSC 85521774 Bypass right innominate vein to upper vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The six recent opportunities posted under this code—spanning independent medical evaluations for disability benefits, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—are healthcare administration and staffing services, not vascular surgical procedures. None of the solicitations involve vascular surgery, graft placement, nonautologous tissue substitutes, or the clinical interventions the code nominally describes. State and local procurement offices have tagged these opportunities with a surgical procedure code despite soliciting for administrative healthcare contracting services, creating a mismatch between the code's taxonomy definition and the work actually being bought.

The tag appears to reflect a data-entry or classification error rather than meaningful procurement volume under this commodity. No actionable activity exists for vendors specializing in vascular surgical supplies, implants, or procedure-related goods and services under this code. Business development professionals should verify code alignment through the issuing body before pursuing opportunities appearing under this UNSPSC number.
