UNSPSC 85522167: Bypass left innominate vein to upper vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left innominate vein to upper vein, 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 05144ZY

UNSPSC 85522167 Bypass left innominate vein to upper vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it span independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit carve-out programs—none of which involve the vascular surgical procedure the code nominates. No state or local solicitations retrieved under this code actually procure the surgical intervention described.

The mismatch suggests either a data classification error or that state and local procurement offices are applying this code to broader health services categories rather than discrete clinical procedures. Without opportunities that genuinely solicit bypass graft surgery, vascular equipment, or related procedural goods, pursuit under this code's nominal scope is not feasible. Business development professionals should verify category alignment with the issuing body before responding to any opportunity tagged with this code, and monitor whether future activity corrects the classification or confirms that the code remains misaligned with actual state and local buying behavior.
