UNSPSC 85522622: Bypass left face vein to upper vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left face vein to upper vein with nonautologous 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 051V4KY

UNSPSC 85522622 Bypass left face vein to upper vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) bears little relevance to actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it span occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, specialty-procedure carve-out networks, and disability medical evaluations — none of which align with vascular bypass surgery procurement. State and local health systems and benefits administrators do purchase medical services, but the tagging of these opportunities under a highly specific procedural code appears to reflect data classification error rather than genuine category mapping.

The issuing bodies include a state health-care purchaser (Washington State Department of Transportation/Washington State Ferries), county health systems and benefits administrators (Collier County, Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and municipal entities (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). Recent opportunities include the Washington State Ferries' occupational medical surveillance RFP (proposals due October 9, 2026); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP for disability determinations under Arizona's public safety pension system (proposals due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach's surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit RFP for Centers of Excellence networks (proposals due October 7, 2026); and the Santa Clara County Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across 13 clinical categories (proposals due October 7, 2026). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no clear concentration. Given the procedural-code-to-general-health-services mismatch, this code does not serve as a reliable signal for procurement planning in actual medical service markets.
