UNSPSC 85521008: Restriction of left internal jugular vein with intraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of left internal jugular vein with intraluminal device, 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 05VN0DZ

UNSPSC 85521008 "Restriction of left internal jugular vein with intraluminal device, open approach" is a Commodity code that shows no recent activity aligned with its nominal surgical procedure scope in state and local procurement. The source material presents six recent state and local opportunities tagged or associated with this code, but none involve the specific vascular surgical intervention the code describes. Instead, the tagged opportunities cover occupational medical surveillance services, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for government employee health plans, specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which match the code's clinical procedure name. This mismatch suggests either a coding error in the tagging of these opportunities or a fundamental misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy entry and actual state and local procurement usage.

The recent opportunities do reveal active state and local purchasing in medical services and health benefits administration across multiple jurisdictions and issuing-body types. The Washington State Department of Transportation (Washington State Ferries) posted an RFP for occupational medical surveillance (due October 9, 2026); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability pension determinations (due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach posted an RFP for a surgical benefit carve-out program with Centers of Excellence (due October 7, 2026); and Santa Clara County Health System posted an RFQ for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). These solicitations originate from state departments, city governments, counties, and county health systems across Washington, Arizona, California, and Florida. However, because none of these opportunities involves the specific left internal jugular vein restriction procedure that the code nominally describes, the code appears to have minimal relevance for business development professionals evaluating genuine market activity in vascular surgery or interventional procedures at the state and local level.
