UNSPSC 85523270: Release right brachial vein, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to release 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 05N90ZZ

UNSPSC 85523270 Release right brachial vein, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal medical-procedure scope. The six recent state and local opportunities posted under this code between July and September 2026 involve independent medical evaluations for retirement disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs and Centers of Excellence networks, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the code's stated surgical intervention for brachial vein release. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the jurisdictions' procurement systems or a taxonomy gap where state and local agencies are applying this code to broader medical services and administration work rather than to the specific vascular surgical procedure the code describes.

Issuing bodies include city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal procurement bureaus (Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), county commissioners' offices (Collier County), and regional health systems (Santa Clara County). The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no clear concentration. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026) worth up to $750,000 over five years, the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry terminals (due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQ to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across thirteen ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). Given the misalignment between the code's name and the solicitation content, vendors should verify coding accuracy with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities tagged to this code.
