UNSPSC 85521208: Restriction of left internal jugular vein with intraluminal device, percutaneous 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, percutaneous 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 05VN3DZ

UNSPSC 85521208, Restriction of left internal jugular vein with intraluminal device, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code whose title reflects a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code does not align with that clinical description. The recent opportunities posted against this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical carve-out benefit programs, and emergency services for detained youth — none of which involve jugular vein restriction procedures or intraluminal devices. The mismatch suggests either a data classification error or broad misapplication of the code in source systems. State and local issuing bodies — including the Washington State Department of Transportation, City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach, Collier County, Harris County, and Santa Clara County Health System — are using this code to procure healthcare administration and staffing services rather than specialized vascular interventions.

Geographic activity is concentrated in California and the Pacific Northwest, with Washington State (WSDOT occupational surveillance), Arizona (Phoenix Fire and Police retirement disability evaluations), and Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefit management) showing recent posting activity as of August through October 2026. The Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) calls for licensed occupational medicine physicians to conduct baseline and periodic examinations across 14 ferry system locations; the Phoenix Retirement Office RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) seeks independent medical evaluation services and disability medical record summary preparation for approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications at $750,000 over five years. Given the absence of relevant procurement activity under the code's nominal scope, this code warrants review for reclassification or cleanup in state and local taxonomy systems rather than active pursuit.
