UNSPSC 85523105: Restriction of right hand vein with intraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of right hand vein with intraluminal 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 05VG0DZ

UNSPSC 85523105 Restriction of right hand vein with intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code nominally describing a surgical procedure, but recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code show minimal alignment with that scope. The most recent opportunities—independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs, and emergency medical services for detained youth—do not involve vein restriction procedures or intraluminal devices. The code appears to be either a classification error in the source material or reflects a systematic mismatch between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how issuing bodies tag healthcare and medical administration work.

The issuing bodies posting under this code span diverse public entities: a municipal retirement office (City of Phoenix), counties (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), a city employee benefits program (City of Long Beach), and a state transportation agency (Washington State Department of Transportation). Activity appears concentrated in California, Arizona, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years) supporting disability determinations for public safety personnel; Santa Clara County Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award RFQ for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026); and the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026). Given the pervasive disconnect between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited, this code does not usefully identify genuine opportunities in medical device procurement or procedure-specific services.
