This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right cephalic vein to upper vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 051D0KY

UNSPSC 85523365 Bypass right cephalic vein to upper vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical vascular procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it span independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, surgical carve-out benefit programs, occupational health surveillance, youth detention healthcare services, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve cephalic vein bypass procedures. The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the actual work being solicited suggests either a classification error in the source data or that this code is not the appropriate taxonomy tier for the work state and local governments are actually buying in this space.

The issuing bodies represented in the recent opportunities include city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal health systems (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), state transportation departments (Washington), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), and county employee benefits programs (Collier County), spanning Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services with proposals due October 16, 2026 and a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services with proposals due October 9, 2026 and pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing services with proposals due October 7, 2026. If your firm pursues work under this code, verify that your target opportunity is correctly classified; the code as named does not align with the state and local procurement activity currently tagged to it.
