UNSPSC 85522339: Bypass right external jugular vein to upper vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right external jugular vein to upper vein with nonautologous 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 051P0KY

UNSPSC 85522339, "Bypass right external jugular vein to upper vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach," is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure. However, the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code show little alignment with the nominal surgical-procedure scope. Instead, the actual work being solicited includes independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, occupational health surveillance, specialty medical care coordination for government beneficiaries, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve the surgical procedure named in the code taxonomy. The issuing bodies are diverse municipal and county jurisdictions: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (serving fire and police pension boards), the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System. The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida, reflecting activity across multiple state and local procurement jurisdictions.

Representative recent solicitations show the mismatch plainly. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office issued RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, for independent medical evaluation services including disability medical record review and scheduling of physician examinations for approximately 75 annual pension-benefit applications, with a five-year term and maximum compensation of $750,000 commencing February 3, 2027. The Washington State Department of Transportation's Washington State Ferries division issued RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, for occupational medical surveillance services by board-certified occupational physicians across 14 ferry locations statewide, with a two-year initial term and optional five-year extension. The County of Santa Clara Health System issued RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026, to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing in audiology, cardiology, radiology, orthopedics, and other clinical categories. This code exhibits low relevance to actual state and local procurement activity under its stated taxonomy.
