This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left cephalic vein to upper vein with synthetic 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 051F4JY

UNSPSC 85524157 Bypass left cephalic vein to upper vein with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the scope of work actually being solicited by state and local governments under this designation. The recent opportunities posted under this code encompass disability medical record review and summarization, independent medical evaluations for public safety pension determinations, occupational health surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, surgical procedure carve-out networks for municipal employees, and temporary health professional staffing placement. The code's nominal reference to a specific surgical procedure bears no relationship to the administrative healthcare and benefits management services that state and local procurement offices are actually purchasing. The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), reflecting a mix of health system procurement, pension administration, and employee benefits management.

Geographic activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas based on recent postings. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) for approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications under Arizona's Public Safety Personnel Retirement System with a five-year maximum contract value of $750,000; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) with a two-year initial term and five optional one-year extensions; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). This code shows significant misalignment between its procedural taxonomy designation and actual state and local procurement activity, which focuses on healthcare administration, benefits management, and personnel services rather than surgical procedures.
