UNSPSC 85522036: Supplement azygos vein with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement azygos vein with autologous tissue 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 05U047Z

UNSPSC 85522036 Supplement azygos vein with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure involving vein supplementation with autologous tissue—does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The six recent solicitations tagged to this code span independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involves the surgical procedure the code nominally describes. This mismatch indicates either a classification error in the source data or a fundamental disconnect between the code's intended scope and how it is being applied in practice by state and local procurement offices.

No state or local government solicitations under this code are currently acquiring the surgical service named in the Commodity code itself. Vendors pursuing this code should verify the correct UNSPSC classification before pursuit, as the recent opportunities are healthcare service and staffing procurements entirely distinct from vascular surgery. The geographic distribution of recent opportunities—Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), and Texas (Harris County)—reflects general healthcare procurement activity rather than demand for this specific procedure.
