UNSPSC 85522125: Drainage of left subclavian vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage 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 05964ZZ

UNSPSC 85522125 Drainage of left subclavian vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal medical procedure scope and actual state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code include independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations involve the specific percutaneous endoscopic drainage procedure the code nominally describes; instead, the code appears to be used by procurement systems to classify broad healthcare administration and occupational medicine contracts where coding precision is either absent or misapplied. Issuing bodies include county human resources departments, municipal retirement offices, state transportation agencies, county juvenile probation departments, county health systems, and special purpose consortiums managing employee health benefits. The mismatch between code name and actual work suggests this code either receives inaccurate tagging or sits within a broader taxonomy tier that state and local procurement systems apply to healthcare services generically.

Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Washington State, Texas, and Florida, with the most recent solicitations appearing in August and September 2026. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations (due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out programs for approximately 3,800 enrolled employees (due October 7, 2026, with contract go-live targeted April 1, 2027), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across thirteen ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026, non-exclusive multiple-award with no guaranteed volume). The code does not appear to support direct procurement of the specific surgical procedure it nominally describes; vendors pursuing activity under this code should treat it as a healthcare administration and occupational medicine classification rather than a surgical services taxonomy.
