UNSPSC 85522534 Replacement of left external jugular vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitation activity, does not align with the code's nominal medical-procedure scope. The source shows no direct procurement of the specified vascular surgical procedure. Instead, recent opportunities tagged under this code address occupational health surveillance, independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical care network management, and youth detention medical services — none of which concern jugular vein replacement or related vascular procedures. State and local issuers have posted six recent opportunities under this code since July 2026, reflecting a clear pattern of mislabeling rather than procurement of the coded service itself.

The issuing bodies include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluation), Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance), the City of Long Beach (surgical carve-out network management), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing), and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth). Geographic activity spans Arizona, Washington, California, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations statewide with proposals due October 9, 2026, and the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability determinations with a $750,000 five-year contract value and proposals due October 16, 2026. The code shows no relevant recent activity for the specific vascular surgical procedure named in its title.
