UNSPSC 85521716: Extirpation of matter from right innominate vein, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right innominate vein, 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 05C30ZZ

UNSPSC 85521716 Extirpation of matter from right innominate vein, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the six recent opportunities posted between July and September 2026 solicit occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability retirement determinations, surgical care-out benefit programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody—none of which involve extirpation or vascular intervention. The code shows no recent relevant activity matching its clinical scope.

The mismatch appears systematic rather than incidental; state and local buyers posting these opportunities selected codes describing broader medical service categories, benefits administration, or staffing functions rather than the specific procedural code assigned here. No issuing body, geographic region, or contract value in the recent-opportunities block supports procurement under UNSPSC 85521716 as defined. Firms pursuing state and local work in occupational medicine, medical evaluation services, or health benefits administration should track the codes actually in use by buyers—such as those underlying the Phoenix, Long Beach, Washington State Ferries, Harris County, Collier County, and Santa Clara opportunities—rather than rely on this code for pipeline or competitive intelligence.
