UNSPSC 85521065: Occlusion of right vertebral vein with intraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of right vertebral 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 05LR0DZ

UNSPSC 85521065 Occlusion of right vertebral vein with intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that bears no relation to the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The code describes a specific surgical procedure for vascular intervention; the opportunities posted under this code span independent medical evaluation services, health plan benefits administration, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing. None of these solicitations involve vascular surgery, intraluminal devices, or vertebral vein procedures. The mismatch indicates a classification error in the state and local procurement system rather than meaningful commodity activity—this code shows no relevant recent procurement volume.

The issuing bodies posting opportunities under this UNSPSC include city retirement systems (City of Phoenix), municipal benefits offices (City of Long Beach), state transportation authorities (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile probation departments (Harris County), county health systems (Collier County, Santa Clara County), and regional health service providers. Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001) due October 16, 2026 with a five-year term valued at $750,000; the Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFQ for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825) due October 9, 2026 with a two-year base term and extension options. These opportunities underscore the mislabeling—state and local procurement under this code identifier involves health plan administration and occupational health services, not the specific vascular procedure the code nominally describes. Pursuing activity tagged to this code requires treating each opportunity on its individual merits and disregarding the UNSPSC taxonomy label as unreliable guidance.
