UNSPSC 85524021: Supplement left cephalic vein with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left cephalic vein with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 05UF47Z

UNSPSC 85524021 "Supplement left cephalic vein with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach" is a Commodity code that appears misaligned with the state and local contract opportunities currently posted under it. The code's clinical procedure name does not match the scope of work in the recent solicitations, which encompass occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these opportunities involve vascular surgery or autologous tissue grafting. The code shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement under its nominal scope.

The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the underlying procurement database or a jurisdictional coding inconsistency. Firms pursuing work under this code should verify the actual UNSPSC classifications used by target agencies in their formal RFP and RFQ documents, as the posted opportunities span multiple state and local issuers (Washington State Department of Transportation, City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach, Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County) across different service lines with no connection to the procedural medical device or vascular intervention the code nominally describes.
