UNSPSC 85534308: Replacement of esophageal vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of esophageal 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 06R34KZ

UNSPSC 85534308 Replacement of esophageal vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a highly specific surgical procedure, yet the six recent opportunities posted under or near this code—spanning independent medical evaluation services, health plan surgery carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, juvenile detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—involve no esophageal vein replacement procedures or related surgical interventions. The mismatch suggests the code has been misapplied to administrative healthcare and staffing services rather than the procedural or implant supply categories the code name denotes.

State and local procurement activity under this code lacks coherence, issuing bodies, geographic concentration, or representative opportunities aligned to the code's actual scope. Buyers pursuing legitimate esophageal vein replacement services—whether implant materials, surgical supplies, or specialized procedural support—should verify code assignment in RFPs and RFQs directly rather than rely on UNSPSC classification here. This code does not currently reflect meaningful state and local market activity in the procedure it nominally describes.
