UNSPSC 85521719: Excision of left subclavian vein, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of left subclavian 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 05B60ZZ

UNSPSC 85521719 Excision of left subclavian vein, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are procuring under this classification. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, pension-board disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs for employee health plans, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve subclavian vein excision or operative procedures. State and local procurement offices appear to be using this medical procedure code as a catch-all or administrative bucket for health services procurement broadly, rather than for the specific surgical intervention the code nominally describes. The issuing bodies include county health systems (Santa Clara), county human services departments (Harris County Juvenile Probation), municipal retirement boards (Phoenix), city employee benefits offices (Long Beach), county commissioners offices (Collier County), and state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation). This mix reflects the role of health administration and benefits management in state and local government rather than surgical services per se.

Geographic spread includes California (Santa Clara County, Long Beach), Arizona (Phoenix), Texas (Harris County), Florida (Collier County), and Washington State, with the most recent activity concentrated in August–October 2026. Representative current opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026) seeking examinations across 14 ferry locations, the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's disability medical evaluation RFP (due October 16, 2026) for approximately 75 annual pension-board cases at a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years, the City of Long Beach's Centers of Excellence surgical benefit carve-out RFP (due October 7, 2026) for approximately 3,800 enrolled employees and retirees, and the County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award staffing qualification solicitation (due October 7, 2026) for temporary ancillary clinical professionals across 13 service categories. The code's recent activity does not support reliable characterization of subclavian vein excision procurement; prospective vendors should verify whether opportunities are genuinely aligned with surgical services before pursuing.
