UNSPSC 85531627: Bypass left foot vein to lower vein with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left foot vein to lower vein with synthetic substitute, 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 061V0JY

UNSPSC 85531627, "Bypass left foot vein to lower vein with synthetic substitute, open approach," is a Commodity code nominally describing a specific vascular surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code show little relevant procurement activity aligned with that clinical description. The six recent solicitations span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, specialty medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve procurement of bypass grafts, implantable vascular devices, or related surgical supplies or instrumentation. The mismatch between the code's precise procedural name and the actual work being solicited suggests either a cataloging error in how opportunities were tagged or a fundamental misalignment between UNSPSC taxonomy and state and local healthcare purchasing patterns at this commodity level.

Activity is sparse and geographically dispersed across Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), with no jurisdiction appearing more than once in recent months. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, county human resources and procurement divisions, a state transportation department, and county health systems — a mix reflecting healthcare administration and occupational health rather than orthopedic surgical supply procurement. Without concrete recent opportunities showing state or local governments buying vascular grafts, synthetic substitutes, or implantable vascular devices under this code, pursuit is not supported by current market activity.
