UNSPSC 85532934: Bypass splenic vein to lower vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass splenic 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 06110KY

UNSPSC 85532934 Bypass splenic vein to lower vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent solicitations tagged with this code solicit occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for youth in detention — none of which involve the splenic vein bypass procedure named in the code. This classification mismatch suggests the code has been misapplied to health services procurement or that state and local buyers are using UNSPSC incorrectly in this category.

The geographic and issuing-body activity captured in the source reflects health services and benefits administration rather than procedure-specific medical procurement. The Washington State Department of Transportation posted a solicitation for occupational medical surveillance services (due October 9, 2026); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office sought independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations (due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach requested surgical procedure carve-out benefits management (due October 7, 2026); Collier County sought pharmacy benefit management services (due April 9, 2026); the County of Santa Clara Health System established a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026); and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for specialty medical services for detained youth (due September 25, 2026). Activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with a mix of state agencies, counties, and municipalities. Given the consistent mismatch between the code's procedural name and the actual work being solicited, this code appears unsuitable for targeting surgical procedure procurement.
