UNSPSC 85523154: Bypass left hand vein to upper vein with autologous arterial tissue, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left hand vein to upper vein with autologous arterial tissue, open 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 051H0AY

UNSPSC 85523154 Bypass left hand vein to upper vein with autologous arterial tissue, open approach is a Commodity code nominally describing a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities show minimal alignment with this clinical taxonomy. The code appears in state and local procurement records tagged to administrative health services and staffing sourcing rather than direct surgical intervention or procedure codes. Recent opportunities solicited under this code include medical record review and disability evaluation coordination, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management administration, specialty medical provider networks, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which directly map to the vascular bypass procedure the code nominally names.

The issuing bodies include state health agencies, county human resources and benefits departments, city retirement offices, county health systems, and county juvenile justice authorities across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026) supporting disability determinations for 75 annual pension applications; the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026) for baseline and periodic examinations across 14 ferry system locations; the County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award staffing vehicle (due October 7, 2026) for temporary ancillary clinical professionals; and Collier County's pharmacy benefit management RFP (due April 9, 2026) covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees. The code shows low relevance to its stated clinical procedure scope and appears to conflate administrative health procurement with procedural billing taxonomy.
