UNSPSC 85522843: Destruction of upper vein, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction 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 055Y0ZZ

UNSPSC 85522843 Destruction of upper vein, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with state and local government procurement activity in the recent opportunities block. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure code, but the six state and local contract opportunities posted between July and September 2026 solicit occupational health services, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which involve destruction of upper vein procedures. The mismatch suggests that either the code was misapplied by the issuing body or the recent opportunities are unrelated to the code's actual scope.

The opportunities span multiple issuing bodies—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System—across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. These represent state departments, county governments, and city procurement offices. No recent state and local contract opportunity shows activity directly related to upper vein destruction procedures or vascular surgery under this code.
