UNSPSC 85522509: Restriction of left external jugular vein with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of left external jugular vein with extraluminal device, 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 05VQ4CZ

UNSPSC 85522509 Restriction of left external jugular vein with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope describes a specific surgical procedure; however, recent state and local contract activity shows little alignment with this clinical descriptor. The most recent opportunities posted under this code include independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve jugular vein restriction or the specified surgical approach. The mismatch suggests this code either receives sporadic or mislabeled procurement activity at the state and local level, or vendors and procurement offices are tagging unrelated services to it inconsistently.

The opportunities that do appear span diverse issuing bodies: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (pension administration), the City of Long Beach (municipal employee benefits), the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational health), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (custodial healthcare), Collier County (employee pharmacy benefits), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary clinical staffing). Geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Recent solicitations include Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026), Long Beach's RFP for surgery benefit carve-out management (due October 7, 2026), and WSDOT's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (due October 9, 2026). Given the wide divergence between the code's stated scope and actual procurement activity, firms should verify code alignment with issuing bodies before committing bid resources.
