UNSPSC 85522836: Extraction of upper vein, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extraction of upper vein, 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 05DY0ZZ

UNSPSC 85522836 Extraction of upper vein, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal surgical scope. The code's title refers to a specific clinical procedure, yet the six recent opportunities posted to state and local procurement portals between July and September 2026 do not solicit that service; instead, they address independent medical evaluations, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit administration, surgical carve-out networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth. These opportunities span different service lines—administrative medical review, occupational medicine, benefits administration, and workforce augmentation—none of which map to extraction of upper vein procedures as typically understood in surgical taxonomy.

The issuing bodies include a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county entities (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, County of Santa Clara Health System), and cities (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), with geographic spread across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. The mismatch between the code's surgical designation and the actual procurement content suggests either miscoding in state and local taxonomy databases or a data artifact; practitioners should treat this code with caution and verify scope through primary RFP documents before pursuing opportunities tagged under it.
