This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from upper vein, percutaneous endoscopic 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 05CY4ZZ

UNSPSC 85523036 Extirpation of matter from upper vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it bear no relation to its nominal clinical scope. The opportunities instead describe administrative medical services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, and temporary staffing placements—none involving vascular or endoscopic intervention. The code shows a significant mismatch between its taxonomy label and what state and local government is actually buying under the designation, rendering it unreliable as a procurement signal for orthopedic or vascular surgery services.

The six most recent postings span Phoenix retirement disability evaluations (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), Long Beach surgical care networks (City of Long Beach, RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026), Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance (WSDOT, RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), Harris County youth detention medical services (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, RFI 071626BNM, due September 25, 2026), Collier County pharmacy benefit management (Collier County Board of County Commissioners, RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026, now past deadline), and Santa Clara County temporary health professional staffing (County of Santa Clara Health System, RFSQ RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Issuing bodies include county human resources and retirement offices, city pension boards, state transportation departments, county juvenile justice agencies, and public health systems. The geographic spread covers Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. No state or local buyer appears more than once, and the procurement activity spans a wide institutional base without geographic clustering. This code presents little actionable opportunity for firms targeting medical device, surgical, or vascular service categories.
