UNSPSC 85522210: Restriction of right external jugular vein, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of right external jugular vein, open 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 05VP0ZZ

The UNSPSC code 85522210 Restriction of right external jugular vein, open approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure; however, the source shows no recent state and local procurement activity for this clinical intervention. The five recent opportunities posted under this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services for county detention, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care for county members, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and medical director services for a municipal fire department — none of which involve jugular vein restriction surgery or vascular surgical procedures of any kind. The mismatch between the code's narrow clinical scope and the breadth of health services and administrative procurement activity tagged to it suggests either systemic miscoding in the source data or a fundamental disconnect between how this code is indexed and how state and local agencies are using it.

State and local procurement activity under this code reflects a pattern of healthcare administration, management services, and employee or constituent health benefit programs rather than surgical services. The issuing bodies include county boards of commissioners (Collier County and Monroe County, Florida; Muscogee County, Georgia), county behavioral health departments (San Mateo County, California), and municipal fire departments (Santa Monica, California). Geographic spread spans Florida, Georgia, and California. Representative recent opportunities include the Columbus Consolidated Government's inmate medical and pharmacy services RFP posted April 15, 2026, with proposals due May 15, 2026; Collier County's pharmacy benefit management RFP posted April 9, 2026; and Monroe County's virtual primary and urgent care RFP posted March 14, 2026, with responses due April 16, 2026. Given the absence of any procurement activity aligned with the code's stated clinical scope, this code warrants review for potential taxonomy miscoding rather than pursuit as a viable procurement channel.
