UNSPSC 85523152 Bypass left hand vein to upper vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six most recent opportunities tagged with or near this code in the source record involve independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which constitute the specific surgical procedure named in the code's taxonomy description.

The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the opportunities tagged to it suggests the code itself is not actively used for state and local purchasing of this particular vascular surgical service. State and local health systems, counties, and municipalities procuring healthcare services instead solicit through broader service-delivery categories such as medical staffing, benefit administration, and managed care arrangements rather than through granular UNSPSC codes tied to individual surgical procedures. Firms pursuing work in this tier of the taxonomy should verify that relevant opportunities are being tagged to the code in your jurisdiction's procurement system before committing business development resources.
