UNSPSC 85533480: Supplement inferior mesenteric vein with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement inferior mesenteric vein with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 06U64JZ

UNSPSC 85533480 Supplement inferior mesenteric vein with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical vein supplementation procedure, but the six recent state and local opportunities posted under it span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent disability medical evaluations, surgical procedure carve-out networks for employee health plans, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these solicitations align with the code's stated surgical intervention; the mismatch suggests the code has been misapplied to general healthcare administration and staffing procurements rather than to the specific endovascular procedure it nominally describes.

Issuing bodies posting under this code include city retirement offices, county human resources divisions, state transportation departments, county health systems, and county juvenile probation departments. The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 (maximum contract value $750,000 over five years); Collier County Board of County Commissioners' RFP for pharmacy benefit management services with historical annual spending of approximately $8.7 million; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing services due October 7, 2026. The code's application to these healthcare administration and staffing categories rather than to surgical procedures indicates either systematic miscoding in state and local procurement systems or a fundamental misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how this particular code is being deployed in the market.
