UNSPSC 85534060: Bypass inferior vena cava to superior mesenteric vein with autologous arterial tissue, 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 with autologous arterial tissue, 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 06104A5

UNSPSC 85534060 Bypass inferior vena cava to superior mesenteric vein with autologous arterial tissue, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local solicitation activity tagged under this code bears no relationship to the procedure itself. The six recent opportunities posted between July and September 2026 include independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve vascular bypass surgery or any surgical intervention. The code shows a fundamental mismatch between its nominal scope and actual procurement activity, indicating either systematic miscoding in state and local procurement systems or that the code has been repurposed for broader medical services categorization. State and local buyers using this code include city retirement boards (Phoenix), municipal health plans (Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington), county corrections (Harris County), county human resources departments (Collier County), and regional health systems (Santa Clara County).

Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas, with no concentration in any single jurisdiction. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, responses due October 16, 2026) at $750,000 over five years, the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFQ for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, responses due October 9, 2026) with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026, and Santa Clara County Health System's RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, responses due October 7, 2026). Given the consistent disconnect between code definition and solicitation content across all six recent postings, this code does not reliably signal procurement opportunity in its stated medical domain and should be monitored for recoding or clarification rather than pursued as a surgical services opportunity.
