UNSPSC 85494401: Restriction of superior vena cava, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of superior vena cava, open 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 02VV0ZZ

UNSPSC 85494401 Restriction of superior vena cava, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities available in the source. The code describes a specific surgical procedure—endovascular or open-approach restriction of the superior vena cava—but the opportunities posted under this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction. None of these solicitations involve superior vena cava procedures or related surgical interventions. The source shows no relevant recent procurement activity for the work the code nominally covers.

This mismatch suggests either a data error in how opportunities were tagged to the code or that state and local procurement offices are using UNSPSC codes inconsistently when posting diverse healthcare contracting opportunities. A business development professional should verify the correct code assignments before pursuing opportunities listed here. The code appears inactive for state and local procurement purposes at present.
