About UNSPSC 85522233

UNSPSC 85522233 Replacement of right face vein with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure—bears no relation to the state and local procurement activity actually tagged under it. The recent opportunities show no vascular or surgical-implant procurement aligned with the code's stated definition. Instead, the code's recent uses span occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, and Centers of Excellence surgical carve-outs for employee health plans. This systematic mismatch suggests the code is misapplied to these procurement activities, or the state and local tagging infrastructure has not correctly mapped the code to its intended commodity scope.

State and local issuing bodies using this code include county and city benefits offices, a state transportation department, a county health system, and a juvenile probation department. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) covering disability medical record summaries and physician examinations for approximately 75 annual pension applications; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 statewide locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary ancillary health professional staffing in thirteen clinical categories including audiology, diagnostic imaging, and surgical services (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Activity appears concentrated in California, Arizona, and Washington, with additional recent postings from Florida and Texas. Vendors pursuing this code should verify the intended commodity scope with issuing procurement offices before bid; the code's current tagging pattern does not reliably identify surgical-implant or vascular-device procurement.
