UNSPSC 85522423 Supplement right external jugular vein with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the scope of work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical center-of-excellence networks, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody—none of which correspond to the vascular surgical procedure named in the code. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the procurement system or use of the code as a catch-all for health services contracting activity that belongs in different UNSPSC categories.

The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and municipal governments (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach). Recent opportunities span Washington, Arizona, California, and Florida, with no clear geographic concentration. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026, and the City of Long Beach's RFP (HR26753) for surgical procedure carve-out benefits due October 7, 2026. Given the fundamental disconnect between the code's nominal description and the actual work being bought, this code presents limited decision relevance for tracking genuine procurement demand in this service domain.
