This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of left innominate vein with intraluminal device, open 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 05V40DZ

UNSPSC 85521608 Restriction of left innominate vein with intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual procurement activity being solicited under it by state and local governments. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit administration, occupational medical surveillance, youth detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve vascular surgery, device restriction, or venous intervention. The code assignment appears to be a classification error within the sourcing system rather than a genuine match between the UNSPSC taxonomy and the work being bought.

The mismatch is systematic across all six recent opportunities. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office seeks disability medical record review and examination coordination for pension determinations; the City of Long Beach seeks Centers of Excellence network management for surgical procedures across multiple specialties; the Washington State Department of Transportation seeks occupational health surveillance; Harris County Juvenile Probation seeks emergency and specialty care for detained youth; Collier County seeks pharmacy benefit management; and the County of Santa Clara Health System seeks temporary ancillary clinical staffing. None of these activities fall within vascular intervention, cardiac or peripheral vessel procedures, or the interventional radiology and surgical domains that the code name suggests. State and local procurement professionals evaluating this code should verify the UNSPSC assignment in their sourcing platform before pursuing opportunities, as the current tagging may indicate systemic data quality issues in the underlying opportunities database.
