UNSPSC 85532373: Supplement portal vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement portal 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 06U80KZ

UNSPSC 85532373 Supplement portal vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code describing a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it do not reflect surgical implant procurement or vein-grafting services. Instead, the code shows activity in occupational health surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit management programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth detention. The code appears to serve as a catch-all medical-services category within state and local procurement systems rather than a specialized implant or surgical technique. Issuing bodies include county health systems, municipal retirement offices, state transportation departments, county juvenile probation departments, and county commissioners' offices. The mix spans regional health authorities, municipal pension boards, and state transportation agencies, with no single dominant buyer pattern.

Geographic activity concentrates in Arizona (Phoenix Retirement Office), California (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), Washington State (WSDOT), and Texas (Harris County), with no standout national pattern. Recent representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) covering disability benefit medical record summarization and examination scheduling for approximately 75 annual applications at $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) requiring board-certified occupational physicians; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code shows no consolidated procurement trend and appears misaligned with its nominal taxonomy scope; vendors should verify actual scope alignment in each RFP rather than assume the code accurately describes the medical work being solicited.
