UNSPSC 85523122: Repair right hand vein, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to repair right hand 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 05QG0ZZ

UNSPSC 85523122 Repair right hand vein, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure — the open repair of a right-hand vein — yet the five recent opportunities posted under it span inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county prison, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support services for mental health workers, and fire department medical director services. None of these solicitations involve vein repair or surgical procedures, and no sourced opportunity reflects orthopedic, vascular, or surgical contracting activity of any kind.

The mismatch between the code's technical medical scope and the actual state and local work being tagged suggests a cataloging error in the original notices rather than a live procurement category. The opportunities themselves — drawn from Georgia, Florida, and California jurisdictions including Columbus Consolidated Government (Muscogee County), Collier County, Monroe County, San Mateo County, and the Santa Monica Fire Department — represent health-services management, benefit administration, and medical staffing rather than medical device supply, surgical services, or vascular repair. State and local governments pursuing opportunities under this code should verify the UNSPSC classification against the actual scope of work, as the current tagging does not reflect the substance of what is being procured.
