UNSPSC 85522211: Restriction of right external jugular vein with intraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of right external jugular vein with intraluminal device, 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 05VP0DZ

UNSPSC 85522211 Restriction of right external jugular vein with intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual procurement activity tagged under it in recent state and local solicitations. The code's clinical procedure title bears no relationship to the services state and local governments are currently buying under this designation. Recent opportunities show instead that the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System are soliciting medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, surgical benefit carve-outs, specialty and emergency medical services, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with vascular surgical restriction procedures. The code assignment appears to be a classification error in the sourcing systems that tagged these opportunities.

The geographic spread of issuers spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with a mix of county systems, municipal governments, state departments, and health authorities. No recent opportunities demonstrate consistent procurement under this code's nominal scope. The mismatch between the code's procedural name and the health services and staffing categories actually being solicited signals that either the code has been misapplied across multiple jurisdictions or the source data reflects a systematic classification failure. Business development professionals should not rely on this code to identify genuine opportunities in vascular or interventional medical device procurement at the state and local level.
