UNSPSC 85494701: Restriction of superior vena cava, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of superior vena cava, 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 02VV4ZZ

UNSPSC 85494701 Restriction of superior vena cava, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a clinical procedure—endoscopic restriction of the superior vena cava—yet the most recent opportunities posted under this code solicita medical staffing, pharmacy benefits management, occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations, and surgery benefit carve-out programs for public employees and youth in detention. These solicitations bear no direct relationship to the procedure the code purports to name. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in the source data or use of the code as a broad administrative catch-all for medical services procurement unrelated to vascular interventions.

The recent opportunities span multiple issuing bodies—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluations for public safety pension determinations), the City of Long Beach (surgery benefits management), the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty care for detained youth), Collier County Health Care Consortium (pharmacy benefit management), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary ancillary health professional staffing). Geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Procurement activity is concentrated in employee-benefits administration and occupational health programs rather than clinical procedures. The code shows no meaningful recent activity aligned with its nominal procedure scope.
