UNSPSC 85532855: Bypass portal vein to lower vein with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass portal vein to lower 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 06180JY

UNSPSC 85532855 "Bypass portal vein to lower vein with synthetic substitute, open approach" is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local contract activity. The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington involve occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None involve vascular surgical procedures or implantable vascular devices. The code's nominal scope—a specific vascular surgical technique—falls outside the scope of goods and services state and local procurement offices currently solicit.

State and local health authorities, counties, and municipalities do purchase medical and surgical services and supplies, but the recent opportunities tagged to this code represent administrative healthcare contracting (benefits management, occupational health programs, staffing) rather than clinical procedures or surgical supplies. The mismatch suggests either miscoding at the issuing body or that the code itself sees minimal state and local procurement activity. Vendors pursuing state and local healthcare spending should verify code alignment before pursuing opportunities in this category.
