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 05ND0ZZ

UNSPSC 85523268 Release right cephalic vein, open approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure and does not align with the state and local procurement activity in the recent opportunities record. The five most recent opportunities posted under this code involve inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for mental health workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve surgical intervention on the cephalic vein or relate to the procedural code's nominal scope. The mismatch suggests either a data classification error in the state and local procurement system or that this code is being applied to opportunities outside its intended medical procedure taxonomy.

The opportunities that do appear in the record span diverse issuing bodies including county governments (Muscogee County Prison in Georgia, Collier County in Florida, Monroe County in Florida, and San Mateo County in California) and municipalities (Santa Monica Fire Department in California), with work ranging from jail medical contracting to employee health plan administration. Geographic activity covers Florida, Georgia, and California, with response dates spanning February through May 2026. Because the code's nominal definition does not match any of the solicited work, this code does not represent a meaningful category for state and local procurement activity targeting vendors with surgical or procedural capabilities.
