UNSPSC 85521402: Restriction of left vertebral vein with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of left vertebral vein with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic 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 05VS4DZ

UNSPSC 85521402 Restriction of left vertebral vein with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the six recent opportunities posted under it solicited independent medical evaluation services, health plan surgery benefit carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, juvenile detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve vertebral vein restriction procedures or the procedural medical devices the code names. The mismatch between the code's clinical scope and the actual work being bought suggests either broad miscoding by issuing bodies or a fundamental misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy and state and local healthcare purchasing practice in this category.

The issuing bodies posting under this code span city retirement systems (City of Phoenix), municipal government (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county probation (Harris County), county health systems (Collier County, Santa Clara County), none of which appear to procure clinical procedures directly. The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 ($750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026, and Santa Clara County Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award qualification solicitation for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026. This code warrants immediate clarification with potential customers before pursuit.
