UNSPSC 85532916: Bypass superior mesenteric vein to lower vein with autologous arterial tissue, 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 autologous arterial tissue, 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 06150AY

UNSPSC 85532916 Bypass superior mesenteric vein to lower vein with autologous arterial tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical vascular procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code encompass occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for public safety pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management administration, surgical care center-of-excellence networks, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth. None of these opportunities involve the vascular bypass procedure nominally described by the code. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in how opportunities were tagged or a departure of actual procurement from the code's intended scope.

State and local agencies across multiple jurisdictions and sectors have posted opportunities recently, including the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluations), the City of Long Beach (surgical procedure carve-out management), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty services), Collier County (pharmacy benefit management), and Santa Clara County Health System (temporary clinical staffing). Geographic activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. Because the Commodity code shows no recent relevant procurement, the code does not present a viable pursuit opportunity in its stated scope.
