UNSPSC 85523110 Supplement right hand vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure for vascular supplementation, but the most-recent state and local contract opportunities posted under it center instead on occupational medical surveillance, disability evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefits program administration, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve vascular tissue grafting or surgical supplementation procedures. The issuing bodies include county governments (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), municipal departments (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), and juvenile justice authorities (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department). The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no clear concentration in any single region.

The representative recent opportunities illustrate the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and current procurement reality. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, covering disability benefit determinations for approximately 75 annual applications under Arizona's Public Safety Personnel Retirement System, with a five-year maximum compensation of $750,000. The Washington State Department of Transportation's Washington State Ferries division issued an RFQ for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026, encompassing baseline and periodic examinations for shipyard workers and crew across 14 ferry locations, with cost-based evaluation weighting pricing at 40 percent and non-cost capability factors at 60 percent. The County of Santa Clara Health System posted a non-exclusive multiple-award qualification vehicle due October 7, 2026, to establish a vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories including audiology, diagnostic imaging, respiratory care, and sterile processing. These opportunities reflect occupational health administration, benefits management, and staffing procurement rather than surgical tissue supplementation. Code activity appears sparse and poorly aligned with the nominal procedure description.
