UNSPSC 85521905 Extirpation of matter from hemiazygos vein, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The code nominally describes a specific interventional medical procedure, yet the recent solicitations tracked under this code encompass disability medical evaluations, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure networks, emergency youth detention healthcare, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve hemiazygos vein intervention or percutaneous extirpation. State and local procurement offices appear to have tagged these opportunities with this code in error or as a placeholder rather than matching the substantive scope. The mismatch signals that this code shows little relevant recent activity for vendors specializing in the narrowly defined clinical procedure the code name describes.

The recent opportunities under this code were posted by a state transportation agency (Washington State Department of Transportation), two municipal health and benefits offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), a county health system (County of Santa Clara), a county human services department (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and a county procurement office (Collier County Board of County Commissioners). The geographic spread includes Washington, Arizona, California, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations with proposals due October 9, 2026, and the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit determinations with a maximum five-year contract value of $750,000 and proposals due October 16, 2026. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for purposes of the specialized procedure it nominally describes.
