This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of hemiazygos vein with extraluminal device, open approach.

UNSPSC 85521687 Occlusion of hemiazygos vein with extraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that presents a fundamental mismatch with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical vascular intervention, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it—occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability benefits, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out programs, and temporary health professional staffing—involve no vascular procedures or implantable devices. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope.

State and local issuing bodies posting opportunities under this code span a mix of issuing jurisdictions, including county health systems, county retirement boards, county human resources divisions, state departments of transportation, county juvenile probation departments, and city retirement offices, as evidenced by recent solicitations from the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, and the County of Santa Clara Health System. These opportunities reflect administrative, benefit management, and occupational health functions rather than surgical specialties. Geographic distribution includes Washington, Florida, Arizona, California, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026) for medical examinations of ferry workers across 14 Washington locations, and the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026) supporting public safety pension disability determinations. The code does not appear to serve procurement professionals pursuing vascular surgical device or implant contracts with state and local bodies.
