UNSPSC 85521420: Supplement right vertebral vein with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right vertebral vein with synthetic substitute, 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 05UR4JZ

UNSPSC 85521420 Supplement right vertebral vein with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure, yet recent state and local procurement activity tagged to this code shows little relevance to the nominal scope. The opportunities posted under this code—independent medical evaluations for retirement disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, specialty healthcare services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—are administrative, occupational health, and vendor-managed healthcare services that do not involve vertebral vein supplementation or any procedural intervention matching the code name. This mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the procurement systems or a downstream automated tagging issue that has assigned medical services opportunities to a procedure-specific code.

The issuing bodies span state health agencies, county human resources and benefits consortiums, juvenile probation departments, and local health systems across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with activity concentrated in larger metropolitan areas and county governments managing employee health plans and detention facilities. Recent representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (response due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out programs for employees and retirees (response due October 7, 2026), and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations (response due October 9, 2026). The code shows no recent opportunities for actual surgical procedures or medical device placements, making it unsuitable for vendors offering orthopedic, cardiovascular, or spinal intervention products or services.
