UNSPSC 85522457: Extirpation of matter from left face vein, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from left face vein, percutaneous 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 05CV3ZZ

UNSPSC 85522457 Extirpation of matter from left face vein, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The code's nominal clinical scope—a specific percutaneous vascular procedure—bears no relationship to the medical services, staffing, and benefit administration work actually being solicited by state and local agencies using this tag. No opportunities in the source reflect the procedure named in the code; instead, issuers have tagged independent medical evaluation services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-outs, specialty medical care coordination for detained youth, and temporary ancillary health professional staffing under this code number. This classification mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding at the source or that the code has been repurposed for broader medical administration and clinical staffing activities.

The recent opportunities span state departments, county health systems, and city retirement offices across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office issued an RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability determinations for public safety personnel, with a five-year contract ceiling of $750,000. The Washington State Department of Transportation requested proposals (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry terminal and shipyard locations. Collier County issued an RFP (258414) for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 7,200 enrolled members, with historical spend near $8.7 million annually. The County of Santa Clara Health System established a non-exclusive qualified-vendor pool (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) for temporary staffing across thirteen ancillary health professional categories. The City of Long Beach solicited proposals (HR26753, due October 7, 2026) for a surgical procedure carve-out benefit program for approximately 3,800 employees and retirees. Code activity is present but the scope-code mismatch means opportunities classified here diverge widely from the code's stated clinical definition, creating execution risk for vendors who rely on the code descriptor to scope their pursuit strategy.
