UNSPSC 85522185: Bypass azygos vein to upper vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass azygos 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 05104ZY

UNSPSC 85522185 Bypass azygos vein to upper vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its stated clinical procedure scope. The six recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code address occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-out management, pharmacy benefit administration, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which involve the specific vascular surgical procedure the code nominates. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the source data or use of a clinical procedure taxonomy that does not align with the actual procurement categories state and local governments employ when soliciting medical services contracts.

The geographic spread of these misaligned opportunities spans Washington State (occupational medical surveillance), Arizona (disability medical evaluations), California (surgical benefit management and temporary staffing), Florida (pharmacy benefit management), and Texas (emergency youth detention services). Without opportunities that genuinely reflect the code's surgical scope, no issuing-body mix or representative procurement pattern can be reliably characterized under this code's intended boundary.
