UNSPSC 85521855: Occlusion of left subclavian vein, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of left subclavian vein, percutaneous 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 05L63ZZ

UNSPSC 85521855 Occlusion of left subclavian vein, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that bears no meaningful relationship to the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The code nominally describes a specific clinical procedure—percutaneous treatment of subclavian vein occlusion—yet the recent solicitations posted under this code span independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for transportation workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these opportunities involve subclavian vein procedures or related vascular interventions. The mismatch suggests a taxonomy classification error rather than a legitimate market signal.

The source records no relevant recent opportunities under the code's nominal scope. State and local procurement professionals evaluating this code should treat the category as inactive for its stated clinical purpose and examine whether the miscoded opportunities—which span municipal retirement offices, city employee benefits programs, state transportation agencies, county juvenile detention systems, and county health systems—represent a systematic tagging problem or isolated data quality issues. No geographic concentration, issuing-body pattern, or representative procurement activity supports pursuit of this code in its current form.
