UNSPSC 85524215: Replacement of left basilic 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 basilic 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 05RC4KZ

UNSPSC 85524215, a Commodity code nominally describing a specific surgical procedure (replacement of left basilic vein with nonautologous tissue substitute via percutaneous endoscopic approach), does not match the scope of work actually being solicited by state and local jurisdictions. The recent opportunities tagged under this code span medical evaluation services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve the surgical procedure the code nominally names. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the source data or a significant divergence between the code's intended scope and its application in state and local procurement. No recent state or local opportunities are actually buying basilic vein replacement procedures or related surgical implants under this code.

The most recent opportunities show activity in Arizona (Phoenix Retirement Office disability medical evaluations), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers), California (City of Long Beach surgical benefits carve-out and Santa Clara County temporary health professional staffing), Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefit management), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department specialty medical services inquiry). Because the code does not reflect actual procurement in this category, potential vendors should verify the correct UNSPSC classification before developing a pursuit strategy.
