UNSPSC 85524181: Bypass left axillary vein to upper vein with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left axillary 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 05184JY

UNSPSC 85524181 Bypass left axillary vein to upper vein with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach, Commodity, does not align with state and local procurement activity reflected in recent solicitations. The code nominally describes a specific vascular surgical procedure; however, the recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out benefits for government employees, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these solicitations request the procedural intervention the code describes, suggesting either a data taxonomy mismatch or a state or local procurement classification error.

The issuing bodies posting under this code include the Washington State Department of Transportation (Washington State Ferries), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, and the County of Santa Clara Health System—a mix of state transportation agencies, municipal retirement boards, county health and probation systems, and county health systems. Geographic activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, Texas, and Florida. The most recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, pre-bid conference August 31, 2026); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's request for independent disability medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive qualified-vendor-pool solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). No procurement activity under this code actually corresponds to the vascular surgical procedure the code nominally names.
