UNSPSC 85524043: Replacement of left cephalic vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left cephalic vein with nonautologous 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 05RF4KZ

UNSPSC 85524043 "Replacement of left cephalic vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach" is a Commodity code that does not map to the work state and local governments are actually soliciting under it. The recent opportunities tagged to this code reflect healthcare administration, medical surveillance, and staffing procurement—medical record review, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, occupational health screening, specialty surgical carve-out networks, pharmacy benefit management, youth detention healthcare services, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve vascular surgical procedures or tissue replacement. The code's nominal scope names a specific surgical intervention; the recent solicitations do not procure surgical services at all. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, municipal health departments, state transportation agencies, county probation departments, and county health systems—a broad mix of local administrative and healthcare delivery organizations.

The geographic spread of recent activity spans Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington (statewide ferries), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County). Two representative recent opportunities illustrate the mismatch: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) seeks medical record review and disability examinations for pension applicants, with a $750,000 five-year contract value; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) requires baseline and periodic occupational health examinations for ferry workers across 14 locations. The code shows little relevant recent activity to the state and local procurement professional evaluating surgical or vascular work.
