This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage 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 05990ZZ

UNSPSC 85523334 Drainage of right brachial vein, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the six most-recent opportunities tagged to it span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody—none of which involve drainage of a brachial vein or procedural medical coding in the clinical sense. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscategorization in the sourcing database or that this code is being used as a catch-all for medical services procurement without specificity to the actual work being solicited.

The issuing bodies across these opportunities include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and a county health system (Santa Clara). Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry system workers across 14 statewide locations, due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services to support disability pension determinations for approximately 75 annual applications, due October 16, 2026 with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing across 13 clinical categories, due October 7, 2026 on a non-exclusive, non-guaranteed basis. Geographic activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, Texas, and Florida. The code shows no decision-relevant recent activity aligned to its nominal scope and should not be treated as a distinct procurement category for business development purposes.
