UNSPSC 85534051: Bypass inferior vena cava to superior mesenteric vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass inferior vena cava to superior mesenteric vein, 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 06104Z5

UNSPSC 85534051 Bypass inferior vena cava to superior mesenteric vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach, a Commodity code, shows negligible relevance to state and local government procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure — an interventional vascular bypass technique — but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code are unrelated to the procedure itself. Instead, the solicitations tagged with this code cover independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, Centers of Excellence surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal health plans, occupational medical surveillance for ferry system workers, emergency medical services for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these activities involve performing, funding, or procuring the endovascular procedure named in the code.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either systematic tagging error in the state and local procurement systems or that this code is a catch-all placeholder for medical services not elsewhere classified. The recent opportunities are distributed across Arizona (City of Phoenix retirement medical evaluations), California (City of Long Beach surgical benefit networks and County of Santa Clara temporary staffing), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation occupational health surveillance), Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation medical services), and Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefit management), with no geographic concentration. Given that the code produces no relevant recent activity aligned with its stated medical procedure, firms evaluating this code should treat it as inactive for procurement purposes and instead monitor the relevant family or segment codes under which medical services, occupational health evaluations, and health benefits administration are typically solicited.
