UNSPSC 85523000: Principal veins upper body, percutaneous endoscopic 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, percutaneous endoscopic 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 85523000 Principal veins upper body, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Class code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 under this code—covering independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—bear no connection to the code's nominal scope of percutaneous endoscopic procedures involving principal veins of the upper body. The mismatch between the code classification and the actual work being solicited suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or classification drift over time; state and local procurement offices have not recently sought this specific procedure type through formal solicitation notices.

Without verified opportunities matching the code's procedural scope, there is no meaningful geographic spread, issuing-body pattern, or representative recent work to characterize. Vendors pursuing upper-body vein procedures through state and local procurement should verify code assignment with individual issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities tagged under this number and consider whether the relevant medical service codes (such as those covering general medical services or diagnostic imaging) better reflect their service lines.
