UNSPSC 85523417: Replacement of left basilic vein with autologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left basilic 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 05RC07Z

UNSPSC 85523417, Replacement of left basilic vein with autologous tissue substitute, open approach, is a Commodity code whose nominal scope describes a specific surgical procedure, yet recent state and local procurement activity under this code does not reflect vascular surgery or surgical procedures matching that description. Instead, the opportunities posted under this code span occupational health surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in detention — none of which align with the code's stated clinical procedure. The issuing bodies include state transportation departments, county health systems, county pension boards, county human resources divisions, and county juvenile probation departments. This code shows a significant mismatch between its nominal UNSPSC definition and actual procurement activity, signaling either systematic miscoding by state and local procurement offices or a data artifact unrelated to the code's intended scope.

The recent opportunities span Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation ferries occupational surveillance), Arizona (Phoenix city pension boards), California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefit management), and Texas (Harris County juvenile probation), with no geographic concentration. Representative solicitations include the Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, requiring occupational-medicine-board-certified physicians to conduct baseline and periodic examinations across 14 ferry terminals), the City of Phoenix independent medical evaluation RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, for disability pension medical record summaries and examinations), and the County of Santa Clara Health System temporary health professional staffing qualification pool (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026, establishing a non-exclusive multi-award vendor list across ancillary clinical categories). Because the code's actual procurement activity does not align with the code definition, this code does not present a coherent procurement category for business development targeting.
