This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a diagnosis of Venous insufficiency or chronic(peripheral. Venous insufficiency or chronic(peripheral is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as a four digit category under code I87. 2

UNSPSC 85317003 Diagnosis of venous insufficiency or chronic (peripheral) is a Commodity code that appears to capture diagnostic imaging and clinical assessment services for vascular and venous conditions. However, the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not align with its nominal scope. The three most recent solicitations—a diagnostic imaging PACS system implementation, special education contracted services spanning audiologists through speech language therapists, and a temporary health professional staffing pool encompassing radiology, cardiology, audiology, orthopedic, and therapy services—represent a broad and unrelated mix of health IT infrastructure, school district services, and temporary clinical staffing across multiple specialties. The code does not currently show targeted procurement activity specific to venous insufficiency diagnosis or peripheral vascular assessment.

The issuing bodies include a county hospital system (San Mateo Medical Center), a school district (Birdville Independent School District in Texas), and a large county health system (Santa Clara Health System in California), reflecting fragmentation across health care delivery and education sectors rather than concentrated activity in a single jurisdiction type. San Mateo County's PACS solicitation (RFP 660002526251, due October 21, 2026) and Santa Clara Health System's staffing-pool RFQ (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) both operate in California, while Birdville's special education services proposal (RFQ 01027, due October 21, 2026) is based in Texas. The mismatch between the code's nominal medical scope and the actual opportunities posted suggests either a classification error at the source or that this particular Commodity code does not reliably track the venous insufficiency diagnostic work state and local buyers are actually requesting.
