This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass inferior mesenteric vein to lower 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 06160KY

UNSPSC 85532908 Bypass inferior mesenteric vein to lower vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The code nominally describes a specific surgical vascular procedure, but the sourced solicitations are instead buying occupational medical surveillance services, independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which are the vascular surgical procedure the code name specifies. The mismatch between code taxonomy and actual purchasing activity indicates that this Commodity code shows little relevant procurement activity in the state and local market segment.

Recent opportunities posted under this code span Arizona, California, Washington State, Texas, and Florida, issued by municipal retirement boards, county health systems, state transportation departments, county probation agencies, and county commissioners' offices. However, because none of these solicitations address the vascular surgical intervention the code describes, the categorization appears to reflect a data-tagging error rather than legitimate procurement under the intended scope. A business development professional evaluating this code for capture should treat it as inactive for the stated commodity class and verify correct code assignment before pursuing any of the listed opportunities.
