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 05LS0ZZ

UNSPSC 85521061 Occlusion of left vertebral vein, open approach is a Commodity code that does not map to state and local government procurement activity. The code represents a specific medical procedure code, not a procurable product or service category. Recent state and local solicitations tagged under or related to this code show no activity purchasing the procedural intervention itself; instead, the opportunities reflect procurement of medical service delivery, staffing, and benefit administration that may incidentally involve such procedures as part of broader healthcare management.

State and local governments are not purchasing "occlusion of left vertebral vein" procedures as discrete line items. The recent opportunities show issuing bodies—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and Santa Clara County Health System—soliciting independent medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, surgical carve-out networks, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing. These are broader healthcare administrative and delivery services, not specific procedural codes. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the opportunity tagging or a fundamental misalignment between the UNSPSC code definition and state and local procurement practice. No meaningful market activity exists under this code for business development purposes.
