UNSPSC 85533482: Supplement superior mesenteric vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement superior mesenteric vein with nonautologous tissue 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 06U54KZ

UNSPSC 85533482 Supplement superior mesenteric vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that describes a highly specialized surgical procedure. The recent opportunities posted under this code show little alignment with the nominal scope — state and local governments are not procuring vascular surgery supplies or tissue substitutes. Instead, the opportunities solicited reflect procurement of broader health services: occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefits management through Centers of Excellence networks. The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), as well as regional health systems. The mismatch between the code's clinical nomenclature and the actual services being bought suggests this code carries a classification error or has been applied to administrative and procurement services outside its intended scope.

The geographic spread of recent activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office requesting independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations under RFP RTMRFP26001 (response due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation soliciting occupational medical surveillance services via RFP RFP20260825 (response due October 9, 2026), the County of Santa Clara Health System establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical specialties via RFSQHHSFY270052 (response due October 7, 2026), and Collier County requesting pharmacy benefit management services via RFP 25-8414 with historical annual spend of approximately $8.7 million. None of these opportunities align with the procurement of vascular surgery implants or tissue substitutes; the code classification does not reflect the work actually being bought under it in state and local markets.
