UNSPSC 85523210: Restriction of right brachial vein, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of right brachial 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 05V90ZZ

UNSPSC 85523210 Restriction of right brachial vein, open approach is a Commodity code whose title refers to a specific surgical procedure; however, the recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show little alignment with that clinical description. The opportunities actually being solicited span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal employee health plans, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty and emergency medical services for youth in detention, and general health professional staffing—none of which involves restriction of a brachial vein. The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, County of Santa Clara), and cities (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), suggesting the code may be functioning as a catch-all for health and medical service procurement rather than capturing a discrete procedural category.

The geographic spread of recent activity spans California (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), Arizona (Phoenix), Florida (Collier County), Texas (Harris County), and Washington (Department of Transportation), with no clear concentration in any single region. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, RFP, due October 16, 2026) to support disability benefit determinations for approximately 75 annual applications at a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825, RFP, due October 9, 2026) for examinations across 14 ferry system locations; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive qualification vehicle (RFSQHHSFY270052, RFP, due October 7, 2026) for temporary staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories including audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, and therapy services. The mismatch between the code's nominal procedural scope and actual procurement activity suggests either miscategorization in the source data or a systemic issue with how this code is being applied to state and local health services solicitations.
