UNSPSC 85534310: Replacement of esophageal vein with autologous 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 autologous 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 06R347Z

UNSPSC 85534310 Replacement of esophageal vein with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) does not match the scope of work actually being solicited in recent state and local opportunities. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure — replacement of a specific blood vessel using the patient's own tissue — but none of the recent solicitations under this code are procuring that procedure or related clinical services. Instead, the code shows recent activity in occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-outs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency services for detained youth. These are health plan administration, health professional staffing, and occupational health services, not the esophageal vein procedure named in the code.

The issuing bodies are diverse: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (on behalf of pension boards), the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation (for the State Ferries), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and Santa Clara County Health System. Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) for disability benefit determinations; WSDOT's occupational medical surveillance services RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out programs (HR26753, due October 7, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara's multiple-award pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code appears to be misaligned with procurement activity and merits review for reclassification or vendor qualification verification before pursuing opportunities tagged under it.
