UNSPSC 85532456: Replacement of gastric vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of 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 06R20KZ

UNSPSC 85532456, Replacement of gastric vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach (Commodity), shows minimal relevance to state and local government procurement. The code describes a specific surgical procedure — replacement of a gastric vein using nonautologous tissue — yet the recent solicitations tagged under it are unrelated to this procedure and instead reflect broader occupational health, disability medical evaluation, and employee benefit administration work. State and local issuing bodies do not typically procure individual surgical procedures as commodities; the mismatch between the code's specificity and the work actually being solicited suggests either misclassification in the source data or use of an inappropriate UNSPSC mapping.

The most recent opportunities under this code span occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Department of Transportation, Washington State Ferries, RFP due October 9, 2026), disability medical record review and independent medical evaluation services (City of Phoenix, RFP due October 16, 2026), surgical benefit carve-out programs for government employees (City of Long Beach, RFP due October 7, 2026), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, RFI due September 25, 2026), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County, RFP due April 9, 2026 — a past-due date), and temporary health professional staffing (County of Santa Clara Health System, RFP due October 7, 2026). These solicitations originate from state departments, county health systems and probation departments, and city employee benefits offices across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The code does not reflect genuine commodity procurement activity and warrants review for reclassification or removal from active tracking.
