UNSPSC 85531101: Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in lower vein, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in lower vein, open 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 06WY0KZ

UNSPSC 85531101 Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in lower vein, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure involving synthetic vascular grafts—does not match the work actually being solicited under this code tag in the recent opportunities block. Instead, the tagged solicitations cover independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. These are administrative healthcare services and staffing arrangements, not surgical procedures involving tissue substitutes. The issuing bodies span a city retirement office (Phoenix), a municipal health system (Long Beach), a state transportation department (Washington), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County, Texas), a county board of commissioners (Collier County, Florida), and a regional health system (Santa Clara County, California)—a mix of state, county, city, and special-purpose district entities with no pattern of repeat buyers under this code.

The geographic spread reaches Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington across the recent opportunities, with no concentration in any single region. The most concrete recent opportunity is the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP 26001 for independent medical evaluation services (response due October 16, 2026), which seeks disability medical record summaries and medical examinations for approximately 75 annual pension benefit applications at a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years. The Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services (response due October 9, 2026) requires baseline and periodic examinations for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations. The source indicates mismatch between the code's surgical-procedure classification and the administrative and staffing services actually tagged to it, suggesting either miscoding by the issuing bodies or limited relevance of this Commodity code to current state and local procurement priorities.
