UNSPSC 85522536: Replacement of left external jugular vein with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left external jugular vein with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 05RQ47Z

UNSPSC 85522536 Replacement of left external jugular vein with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure; however, the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code show minimal alignment with the surgical-procedure definition. State and local governments do not systematically procure specific surgical interventions as standalone commodities. The code demonstrates little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement — most opportunities tagged to this code address medical staffing, health benefits administration, occupational health surveillance, and pharmacy benefit management, which fall outside the scope of a defined surgical procedure.

The six opportunities in the source include independent medical evaluations for disability retirement determinations (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, RFP, due October 16, 2026), surgical procedure carve-out networks for municipal employees (City of Long Beach, RFP, due October 7, 2026), occupational medical surveillance for ferry system workers (Washington State Department of Transportation, RFP, due October 9, 2026), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, RFI, due September 25, 2026), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County, RFP, due April 9, 2026), and temporary health professional staffing (Santa Clara Health System, RFP, due October 7, 2026). None of these opportunities acquire the specific surgical procedure named in the code. The mismatch between the code's surgical-procedure definition and the administrative and staffing-services work actually being purchased suggests either miscoding in the source data or a systematic misalignment between this Commodity code and state and local procurement practice. Firms pursuing opportunities under this code should verify the actual scope with the issuing body before investing in proposal development.
