UNSPSC 85534002: Bypass colic vein to lower vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass colic vein to lower 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 06174KY

UNSPSC 85534002 Bypass colic vein to lower vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its clinical surgical scope. The recent opportunities posted against this code—independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance, specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—represent administrative health services and workforce management, not the vascular surgical procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch between the code's stated clinical content and the actual work being solicited suggests either systematic miscoding or a data-integration error in how state and local procurement offices are tagging these health-service opportunities.

The geographic spread of the opportunities spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), but none of these solicitations involve the surgical intervention named in the code. The issuing bodies include county commissioners, state departments of transportation, municipal retirement offices, county health systems, and county probation departments. Given the complete disconnect between the code's descriptor and the work being purchased, this code does not represent a viable business development target based on current state and local procurement activity; the opportunities should be pursued under their correct UNSPSC classifications if one intends to bid the underlying services.
