UNSPSC 85521616 Restriction of azygos vein, open approach is a Commodity code showing little relevant recent activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure (restriction of the azygos vein via open surgical approach), but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it are unrelated to surgical intervention and instead span health benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy services administration, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve azygos vein restriction or vascular surgery broadly. The mismatch suggests either miscoding within the issuing jurisdictions' procurement systems or a data artifact rather than substantive procurement demand under this code's stated scope.

The six recent opportunities show activity across multiple government types — municipal retirement benefit administrators (City of Phoenix), county human resources departments (City of Long Beach, Collier County, Harris County), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), and county health systems (Santa Clara County) — concentrated in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The most representative examples are the City of Phoenix RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability pension determinations (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance across ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026), and Collier County's RFP (258414) for pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 7,200 covered members with annual historical spend near $8.7 million (proposal deadline April 9, 2026). No opportunities under this code involve the surgical procedure its nominal scope describes.
