This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of right internal jugular 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 055M3ZZ

UNSPSC 85521324 Destruction of right internal jugular vein, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope — a specific surgical procedure — does not align with the state and local contract opportunities currently tagged under it. The recent solicitations actually reflect procurement of occupational and disability medical evaluation services, employee health benefit administration, temporary health professional staffing, pharmacy benefit management, and specialty surgical network carve-out programs. None of these activities involve vein destruction procedures. The code shows little relevant recent activity for its stated surgical scope.

The issuing bodies in the recent posting history span county human resources divisions, state transportation agencies, county juvenile probation departments, county health systems, and city retirement offices across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Geographic distribution reflects activity in the Southwest and West Coast, with no concentration in any single state. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) covering disability benefit applications for public safety personnel; the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP for ferry workers across 14 locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award qualification pool for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code assignment appears to be a metadata error or tagging mismatch rather than a reflection of procurement activity aligned with the Commodity's stated definition.
