UNSPSC 85523631: Supplement left axillary vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left axillary vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous 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 05U83KZ

UNSPSC 85523631 Supplement left axillary vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six recent opportunities tagged under this code span occupational and disability medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out networks, temporary health professional staffing, emergency youth detention medical services, and independent medical evaluation — none of which involve vascular surgical procedures or tissue supplementation. The code's nominal scope, a specific surgical intervention on the left axillary vein, does not match the medical administration, staffing, and benefit-management services state and local governments are actually soliciting under this tag.

The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in the source database or that the code has been applied as a catch-all for healthcare-related procurements without regard to the specific clinical procedure it nominally describes. State and local procurement professionals evaluating opportunities under this code should verify the actual scope of work in posted RFPs and RFQs rather than relying on the code name alone, as the recent activity reflects administrative and network contracting rather than surgical supply or implant procurement.
