UNSPSC 85522035: Supplement azygos vein with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement azygos 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 05U04JZ

UNSPSC 85522035 Supplement azygos vein with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical procedure (supplementing the azygos vein with synthetic material via percutaneous endoscopic approach), yet the recent opportunities posted under this code do not align with that procedure. Instead, the opportunities span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out networks for Centers of Excellence, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in detention — none of which involve azygos vein supplementation or the specific surgical technique the code purports to describe. The mismatch suggests either a data classification error at the issuing body or a divergence between the code's technical definition and how procurement offices are tagging health-services opportunities in practice.

The recent opportunities originate from mixed issuing bodies: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Geographic activity clusters in California (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), Florida (Collier County), and the Pacific Northwest (Washington State), with secondary activity in Arizona and Texas. Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026 (targeting occupational medicine physicians across 14 ferry system locations), the City of Phoenix's disability medical record summary and independent medical evaluation RFP due October 16, 2026 with a total maximum compensation of $750,000 over five years, and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive temporary health professional staffing qualification vehicle due October 7, 2026 spanning ancillary clinical categories. The code does not reflect procurement demand for the specific surgical procedure it nominally describes.
