UNSPSC 85522123: Excision of hemiazygos vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of hemiazygos 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 05B14ZZ

UNSPSC 85522123 Excision of hemiazygos vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not map to the state and local contract opportunities presented. The recent solicitations tagged to this code include independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for government employees, occupational medical surveillance, specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve vascular surgical procedures or the specific clinical intervention the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the state and local procurement system or that the code has been applied to administrative or consulting services that fall outside its clinical scope.

The available opportunities do reveal purchasing activity across diverse issuing bodies — municipal pension boards, city benefits offices, state transportation departments, county juvenile justice systems, county human resources divisions, and county health systems — engaged in procuring medical administration, employee health benefits, and occupational health support services. However, the code as presented does not show relevant recent activity aligned with vascular surgical procedures, and pursuing opportunities under this code requires confirmation that the underlying work aligns with clinical cardiothoracic or interventional vascular practice rather than the administrative health and benefits management services that recent postings actually reflect.
