UNSPSC 85521241: Release left vertebral vein, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to release left vertebral vein, 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 05NS3ZZ

UNSPSC 85521241 Release left vertebral vein, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific medical procedure — endovascular release of a vertebral vein via percutaneous access — but the recent opportunities posted under this code actually solicit inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support for peer workers, and fire department medical director services. None of these procurements involve the procedure the code nominally names, indicating a mismatch between the code's clinical scope and the work state and local governments are actually buying at this classification level.

Because the recent opportunities do not reflect purchases aligned with the code's stated scope, this code presents little signal for vendors in endovascular or percutaneous vertebral vein procedures. The opportunities appearing under the code are instead spread across county jails (Muscogee County, Georgia), county benefits administration (Collier County, Florida), county employee health plans (Monroe County, Florida), county behavioral health services (San Mateo County, California), and municipal fire departments (Santa Monica, California), with no concentration in a single service line or geography and no indication that these classifications reflect genuine medical-procedure procurement.
