UNSPSC 85532380: Supplement inferior mesenteric vein with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement inferior mesenteric 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 06U60JZ

UNSPSC 85532380 Supplement inferior mesenteric vein with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the state and local contracting activity captured in the recent solicitations tagged to it. The code nominally refers to a surgical procedure for vascular reconstruction, but the recent opportunities include independent medical evaluation services for public safety disability benefit determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for ferry system workers, emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary ancillary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations involve supplementation of the inferior mesenteric vein or similar vascular surgical procedures. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated scope.

The opportunities posted under this code originate from diverse issuing bodies across multiple states and service lines—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of Washington State Ferries), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department in Texas, Collier County in Florida, and the County of Santa Clara Health System in California—suggesting either systematic misclassification at tagging or that state procurement systems are applying this medical-device code to broader healthcare procurement categories. Geographic spread spans Washington, Arizona, California, Texas, and Florida. For vendors pursuing opportunities in this code's taxonomy tier, verifying the actual scope of each solicitation before proposal submission is essential, as the UNSPSC tag and the work description may diverge materially.
