UNSPSC 85531650: Bypass left greater saphenous vein to lower vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left greater saphenous vein to lower vein with nonautologous tissue 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 061Q0KY

UNSPSC 85531650 Bypass left greater saphenous vein to lower vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure—does not align with recent state and local procurement activity posted under this code. The six recent opportunities captured under this code include independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations (City of Phoenix), surgical benefit carve-out programs for government employee health plans (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance services (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management administration (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and temporary ancillary health professional staffing (County of Santa Clara Health System). None of these solicitations concern vascular bypass surgery or procedural coding; the mismatch suggests either a data classification error or that the code is being used as a broad procedural taxonomy bucket within health plan administration rather than for direct surgical procurement.

The issuing bodies are predominantly county health systems and government employee benefit administrators—public sector health plans, retirement boards, and detention and occupational health programs—concentrated in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no repeat buyers appearing across the recent postings. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, up to $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical Centers of Excellence benefit carve-outs (HR26753, due October 7, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award RFSQ for temporary ancillary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Given the disconnect between the procedural code name and the administrative and occupational health services actually being solicited, this code offers little actionable guidance for vendors pursuing state and local work in vascular surgery or related procedures.
