UNSPSC 85522800: Principal veins upper body, open approach

This class includes one or more of 18 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the principal veins of the upper body, open approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 05.

UNSPSC 85522800 Principal veins upper body, open approach is a Class code with minimal and misaligned recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure on upper-body vasculature, but the recent opportunities posted under it reflect healthcare administration, pharmacy benefit management, behavioral health services, and fire department medical direction — none involving the procedural work the code nominally names.

The five most recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code originate from Georgia (Columbus Consolidated Government's Muscogee County Prison), Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners and Monroe County Board of County Commissioners), California (San Mateo County Health Behavioral Health and Recovery Services), and California again (Santa Monica Fire Department). The Muscogee County Prison RFP (posted April 15, 2026; due May 15, 2026) solicits comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services for an all-male facility housing approximately 576 offenders, including medical intake screening, sick call services, chronic care management, emergency services, pharmacy services, dental services, and laboratory work. The Collier County RFP (posted April 9, 2026; due April 9, 2026) solicits Pharmacy Benefit Management Services to cover approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members, with approximately $8.7 million in historical annual pharmacy spending. The Monroe County RFP (posted March 14, 2026; due April 16, 2026) solicits Virtual Primary and Urgent Care Services for approximately 2,300 county members. The source shows no recent opportunities actually purchasing principal vein surgical services or related clinical supplies and equipment under this code; the tagging appears to reflect classification drift rather than procurement intent aligned with the code's nominal scope.
