UNSPSC 85522119: Excision of left subclavian vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of left subclavian vein, percutaneous endoscopic 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 05B64ZZ

UNSPSC 85522119 "Excision of left subclavian vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach" is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this UNSPSC tag do not match the procedure's scope. Instead, the tagged solicitations cover independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve percutaneous endoscopic excision of the left subclavian vein. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the procurement posting system or use of the code as a placeholder rather than a genuine reflection of the work being solicited.

The issuing bodies across these misaligned opportunities span city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal health departments (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), and county human resources departments (Collier County). Without opportunities actually soliciting the specific surgical procedure named in the code, there is no meaningful geographic concentration or representative work stream to characterize. A business development professional evaluating this code should treat the mismatch as a signal to investigate whether the code is actively used in state and local procurement or whether vendors in surgical services should focus on codes that map more directly to the procedures their firms perform.
