This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of infusion device into left 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 05HS43Z

UNSPSC 85521477, Insertion of infusion device into left vertebral vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities tagged to this code do not align with the specific clinical procedure the code describes. Instead, the tagged solicitations represent medical evaluation, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, surgical benefit carve-outs, emergency medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve the insertion of infusion devices into the vertebral vein. The mismatch suggests the code has been incorrectly applied to these opportunities or that state and local procurement systems have not yet adopted granular UNSPSC coding for specific clinical procedures.

The opportunities present across Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington (ferries occupational health), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County) reflect broader healthcare administration and staffing needs rather than procurement of the procedure itself. If this code represents a direct-purchase opportunity for clinical procedure devices or related equipment, no such solicitations appear in the recent state and local market. Organizations seeking to pursue work under this code should monitor for health systems issuing equipment or supply contracts for vascular access devices, interventional radiology programs, or hospital procurement vehicles, rather than rely on the current opportunity set.
