UNSPSC 85532443: Replacement of portal vein with autologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of portal vein with autologous 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 06R807Z

UNSPSC 85532443, Replacement of portal vein with autologous tissue substitute, open approach, is a Commodity code that shows no alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code's clinical scope—a specific surgical procedure involving vascular reconstruction—does not match the opportunities posted under this identifier in recent months.

The recent opportunities tagged to this code reflect healthcare administration and staffing services rather than surgical procedures: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office solicited independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations; the City of Long Beach requested a surgical benefit carve-out program managing referrals to centers of excellence; the Washington State Department of Transportation sought occupational medical surveillance; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth; Collier County sought pharmacy benefit management; and Santa Clara Health System qualified vendors for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories. None of these opportunities involve portal vein replacement or other inpatient surgical procedures. The code shows little relevant recent activity and represents a clear mismatch between the UNSPSC taxonomy and the work being solicited. State and local buyers using this code appear to have tagged general healthcare procurement activities incorrectly, or the code itself is not actively used for state and local contracting in its intended clinical scope.
