UNSPSC 85523314: Extraction of left brachial vein, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extraction of left 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 05DA0ZZ

UNSPSC 85523314 Extraction of left brachial vein, open approach is a Commodity code that bears no meaningful relationship to the state and local procurement activity indexed under it. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure — the open extraction of a left brachial vein — yet the recent opportunities posted under this code solicit comprehensive healthcare services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary care, peer support programs, and medical direction for emergency services. None of these solicitations involve extraction of a brachial vein or any surgical procedure matching the code's clinical scope. The mismatch indicates a tagging error in the source data rather than legitimate healthcare procurement activity under this code.

The issuing bodies in the recent opportunity set span county governments and municipal fire departments across Florida and Georgia, including Columbus Consolidated Government (Muscogee County Prison medical services), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), Monroe County Board of County Commissioners (virtual primary care), San Mateo County Health (peer support services), and Santa Monica Fire Department (medical director services). Because the code does not accurately reflect the work being solicited, no meaningful pattern of geographic concentration or issuing-body specialization can be inferred. State and local procurement professionals should verify the correct UNSPSC classification for health services contracting opportunities rather than relying on this code as a discovery or filtering tool.
