UNSPSC 85532388: Supplement gastric vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement gastric 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 06U20KZ

UNSPSC 85532388 Supplement gastric vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure — supplementing a gastric vein with nonautologous tissue during an open approach — but the six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical carve-out benefit programs, specialty and emergency medical services for youth in detention, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these represent the narrow surgical intervention the code describes.

The recent opportunities reflect the actual scope of work being solicited: administrative health services, occupational health compliance, benefits administration, and staffing support across state departments, counties, and municipal health systems in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office is seeking independent medical evaluation services for 75 annual disability benefit applications under an RFP due October 16, 2026; the Washington State Department of Transportation, on behalf of the Washington State Ferries, is requesting occupational medical surveillance services under an RFB due October 9, 2026 with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026; the City of Long Beach is soliciting proposals for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits for approximately 3,800 employees and retirees under an RFP due October 7, 2026; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth due September 25, 2026; Collier County is requesting pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 7,200 members under an RFP with historical spend of $8.7 million annually; and Santa Clara County Health System is establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories under a non-exclusive multiple-award vehicle due October 7, 2026. The code shows little relevant recent activity and appears mistagged in the procurement system.
