UNSPSC 85523318 Extirpation of matter from left brachial vein, open approach is a Commodity code that bears a procedural medical taxonomy label but does not align with the state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational health surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, surgical procedure carve-out benefits for municipal employees, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth, and independent medical examination coordination — none of which involve the specific surgical procedure named in the code. The issuing bodies range across state departments, county health systems, county commissioners' offices, cities, and special districts.

Activity under this code shows no relevant recent concentration. The Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries posted RFP20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026; the City of Long Beach posted HR26753 for surgical procedure carve-out benefits due October 7, 2026; Collier County Board of County Commissioners posted RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services due April 9, 2026; and Santa Clara Health System posted RFSQHHSFY270052 for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being procured suggests either category mistagging in the procurement system or that this code does not represent a material procurement vehicle for state and local buyers.
