UNSPSC 85531657: Bypass right greater saphenous 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 right greater saphenous 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 061P0JY

UNSPSC 85531657 Bypass right greater saphenous vein to lower vein with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows no alignment with the code's stated clinical scope. The six recent opportunities tagged with this code instead cover occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody — none of which involve vascular bypass surgery or the implantation of synthetic vein substitutes. This systematic mismatch suggests the code has been misapplied across multiple jurisdictions or platforms, rendering it an unreliable signal for vascular surgery procurement.

The issuing bodies include a state transportation department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), a municipal pension authority (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), and a municipal health system (City of Long Beach). Geographic distribution spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Without recent opportunities genuinely sourced to the code's clinical scope, the code does not present a viable pursuit for vendors offering vascular surgical supplies or services.
