UNSPSC 85521452: Repair right vertebral vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to repair right vertebral vein, 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 05QR4ZZ

UNSPSC 85521452 Repair right vertebral vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The source shows no solicitations for vertebral vein repair procedures or related surgical interventions. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code reflect administrative medical services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve the specific surgical procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either a data classification error in the source material or a misapplication of the UNSPSC taxonomy to these opportunities.

The recent opportunities do not support pursuing activity under this code as a surgical services line. The issuing bodies—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System—are soliciting support services and administrative healthcare functions rather than operative procedures. If your firm provides occupational medical surveillance, disability medical record summary services, pharmacy benefit management, or temporary clinical staffing, those capabilities may be marketable to state and local health systems and public agencies; they belong under different UNSPSC codes that reflect their actual scope.
