UNSPSC 85532336: Restriction of superior mesenteric vein with extraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of superior mesenteric vein with extraluminal device, 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 06V50CZ

UNSPSC 85532336 Restriction of superior mesenteric vein with extraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that shows a fundamental mismatch between its clinical procedure name and the state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities filed under this code do not involve vascular or surgical devices; instead, they capture health professional staffing, medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, and surgical procedure carve-out programs for employee health plans. The code's nominal scope — a specific vascular surgical technique using an extraluminal device — does not align with what state and local governments are actually buying in the tagged solicitations. State and local healthcare procurement tagged under this code focuses on administrative, staffing, and managed-care services rather than implantable medical devices or surgical procedures.

The issuing bodies include county health systems, city retirement boards, state transportation departments, and county criminal justice agencies across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office is soliciting independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations with a due date of October 16, 2026 (RFP RTMRFP26001, maximum contract value $750,000 over five years); the City of Long Beach is requesting proposals for a surgical procedure carve-out benefit program with a due date of October 7, 2026 (RFP HR26753); the Washington State Department of Transportation is requesting occupational medical surveillance services for ferry employees with a due date of October 9, 2026 and a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026 (RFP RFP20260825); and the County of Santa Clara Health System is establishing a temporary health professional staffing qualified vendor pool with a due date of October 7, 2026 (RFSQHHSFY270052). Given the code's apparent misclassification, pursuit decisions should rely on direct-source solicitation searches rather than UNSPSC code matching for this particular category.
