UNSPSC 85532915: Bypass superior mesenteric 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 superior mesenteric 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 06150JY

UNSPSC 85532915, Bypass superior mesenteric vein to lower vein with synthetic substitute, open approach, is a Commodity code assigned to medical procedure and clinical service solicitations issued by state and local health systems, counties, and municipalities. However, the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show minimal alignment with the nominal scope—a specific surgical bypass procedure. Instead, the opportunities reflect a broader range of occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluation, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out networks, and temporary clinical staffing services. The issuing bodies are county health systems, city retirement offices, state transportation agencies, county juvenile probation departments, and municipal health benefits administrators, indicating that the code is being used as a catchall for health services procurement rather than for the particular vascular surgery procedure the code name describes.

Recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance services RFP (due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations (due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach's surgical procedure carve-out benefit program for Centers of Excellence (due October 7, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing services multiple-award qualification pool (due October 7, 2026). Activity is concentrated in California, Arizona, and Washington, with a secondary opportunity from Harris County, Texas seeking emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth. The mismatch between the code's defined surgical procedure and the actual work being solicited—which spans benefits administration, occupational health compliance, staffing, and medical record management—suggests this code may be poorly calibrated for state and local health services procurement or subject to variable application across jurisdictions.
