This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right face vein with autologous tissue 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 05RT07Z

UNSPSC 85522234 Replacement of right face vein with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure—bears no alignment with the recent state and local opportunities posted under it. The source shows no relevant state and local procurement activity soliciting the medical procedure the code describes. Instead, the six recent opportunities tagged under this code cover independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve vein replacement surgery or tissue substitutes. The mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in code assignment or systematic misclassification of health-care-related work under an overly specific surgical code that does not describe the services actually being procured.

The issuing bodies span state departments, counties, and municipalities: the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty services for youth), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), the City of Phoenix (disability medical evaluations), the City of Long Beach (surgical benefit programs), and Santa Clara County Health System (temporary health professional staffing). Geographic activity includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 with a $750,000 five-year ceiling, Washington State Ferries' RFP for occupational medical surveillance due October 9, 2026, and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services effective January 1, 2026 with historical spending of approximately $8.7 million annually. None of these solicitations concern the surgical procedure or tissue-substitute work the Commodity code nominally describes.
