UNSPSC 85521272: Extirpation of matter from right vertebral vein, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right 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 05CR3ZZ

UNSPSC 85521272 Extirpation of matter from right vertebral vein, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows substantial mismatch between its medical procedure title and the state and local contracting activity actually being purchased under it. The recent opportunities posted against this code do not include vascular interventional procedures; instead, they cover occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, health professional temporary staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical carve-out benefit programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these solicitations involve extirpation procedures or percutaneous vascular interventions. The code therefore shows little to no relevant recent activity aligned with its stated scope.

The jurisdictions posting against this code span state health agencies, counties, cities, and regional health systems across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The Washington State Department of Transportation (ferries division) posted an occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an independent medical evaluation services RFP due October 16, 2026 at $750,000 over five years; the City of Long Beach posted a surgical and medical procedure carve-out RFP due October 7, 2026; Collier County posted a pharmacy benefit management RFP (submission closed April 9, 2026); the County of Santa Clara Health System posted a temporary health professional staffing pool RFP due October 7, 2026; and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department posted an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth due September 25, 2026. The persistent misalignment between the code's vascular intervention title and the actual content of recent solicitations suggests either a systematic tagging error or that this Commodity code is not actively used for state and local procurement in its intended scope.
