UNSPSC 85524177: Bypass right brachial vein to upper vein with autologous venous tissue, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right brachial vein to upper vein with autologous venous tissue, 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 051949Y

UNSPSC 85524177 Bypass right brachial vein to upper vein with autologous venous tissue, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that carries a surgical procedure classification but does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually buying under this tag. Recent state and local contract opportunities posted against this code involve occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs, and specialty medical services for youth in custody — none of which involve the specific vascular bypass procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either a data classification error in the underlying procurement databases or that public bodies have incorrectly tagged these health care management and staffing procurements to this commodity code. The code shows no evidence of purchasing activity aligned with its defined scope.

The issuing bodies posting against this code include a state department of transportation, county governments, a city health system, and municipal retirement boards across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, indicating broad geographic spread but no discernible pattern of purchasing the procedure the code names. No representative opportunity involves vascular surgery procurement, medical device supply, or physician services directly tied to the brachial vein bypass. Until procurement databases are corrected or the code realigned to its actual use, this code presents no actionable procurement signal for vendors offering the surgical procedure or related clinical services.
