UNSPSC 85521102 Drainage of left vertebral vein with drainage device, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope — a specific surgical procedure — does not align with the state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code span independent medical evaluation services, health plan surgery benefit carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve the drainage procedure named in the code. This mismatch suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or a data-taxonomy alignment issue; the code shows no relevant recent state and local purchasing activity.

The opportunities themselves reflect activity by municipal retirement boards (City of Phoenix), municipalities (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county public health systems (Santa Clara Health System), county probation departments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and county boards of commissioners (Collier County). The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 (maximum contract value $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026, and Santa Clara Health System's qualification-based RFQ for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026. These opportunities target healthcare administration and staffing rather than surgical procedure codes, indicating that firms pursuing opportunities tagged to this code should verify the actual scope of work before preparing responses.
