This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left external jugular vein with synthetic 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 05UQ0JZ

UNSPSC 85522220 Supplement left external jugular vein with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not match the state and local procurement activity in the recent opportunities block. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure involving vascular grafting, yet the recent solicitations posted under this code—inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support for peer workers, and fire department medical director services—involve healthcare administration, benefit management, and clinical service delivery rather than surgical supplies or vein supplementation. The mismatch suggests either misclassification of opportunities or a classification convention not aligned with the stated code scope. The opportunities do reflect genuine state and local healthcare contracting activity across multiple jurisdiction types and geographic regions.

The issuing bodies span counties (Muscogee County, Collier County, Monroe County), a county behavioral health department (San Mateo County), and a municipal fire department (Santa Monica), indicating procurement across county governments and local service agencies. Representative recent opportunities include the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP No. 26-0008 for inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (RFP posted April 15, 2026, due May 15, 2026, with current monthly cost of $95,537.71), Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members (RFP posted April 9, 2026, due April 9, 2026, with historical annual pharmacy spending of approximately $8.7 million), Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services for approximately 2,300 members (RFP posted March 14, 2026, due April 16, 2026), San Mateo County's MHSA Innovation peer support pilot for peer workers (RFP posted February 25, 2026, due July 2, 2025, with $580,000 total funding), and Santa Monica Fire Department's RFP for a medical director (RFP posted February 25, 2026, due October 16, 2025). Recent activity concentrates in Florida (Collier County, Monroe County) and California (San Mateo County), with additional solicitations in Georgia and California. The code shows no relevant recent activity aligned with its stated surgical scope.
