UNSPSC 85522831: Occlusion of upper vein with extraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of upper vein with extraluminal 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 05LY0CZ

UNSPSC 85522831 Occlusion of upper vein with extraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a surgical procedure for vascular intervention. However, the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code does not align with that clinical scope. The most recent opportunities—inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction—are healthcare administration, care coordination, and workforce support contracts rather than surgical device procurement or vascular procedures. The code shows little relevant recent activity for the procedure its title describes, and the mismatch suggests either miscoding in source systems or a divergence between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how state and local procurement offices actually tag healthcare services. State and local buyers are not currently soliciting surgical occlusion devices or vascular intervention procedures under this code.

Geographic activity spans Florida (Collier County, Monroe County), Georgia (Muscogee County), California (San Mateo County), and California (Santa Monica Fire Department), with issuing bodies including county commissioners' offices, a consolidated city government, a county health department, and a municipal fire department. Representative recent opportunities include the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP for inmate medical and pharmacy services (due May 15, 2026), the Collier County Board of County Commissioners' RFP for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees (due April 9, 2026), and Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services for approximately 2,300 county members (due April 16, 2026). None of these opportunities target the clinical procedure the code nominally describes, and practitioners should verify coding accuracy before pursuing work under this classification.
