UNSPSC 85523375: Bypass left brachial vein to upper vein with autologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left brachial vein to upper vein with autologous 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 051A07Y

UNSPSC 85523375 Bypass left brachial vein to upper vein with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under it show little alignment with surgical vascular procedures. The six recent opportunities instead span occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, Centers of Excellence carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention medical services—none of which involve vascular bypass grafting or the procedural implant the code nominally describes. The issuing bodies include a county health system (Santa Clara), a county board of commissioners (Collier County), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County), a city retirement board (Phoenix), a state transportation department (Washington), and a city human resources division (Long Beach), indicating broad jurisdictional participation in health services procurement but not specifically in the surgical procedure named in the code.

The geographic spread across recent activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no evident concentration in a single state or region. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (posted September 16, 2026, due October 16, 2026) covering medical record review and disability examinations for public safety pension determinations at $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (posted August 25, 2026, due October 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System multiple-award qualification solicitation for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories including audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, and surgical services (posted July 7, 2026, due October 7, 2026). The code shows limited relevance to recent state and local procurement activity—the procedural classification appears to have been applied incorrectly to general health services opportunities that do not involve vascular surgical procedures.
