UNSPSC 85523447: Dilation of right basilic vein, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of right basilic 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 057B0ZZ

UNSPSC 85523447 "Dilation of right basilic vein, open approach" is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure rather than a class of products or services that state and local governments procure. The recent state and local contract opportunities tagged with this code show no relevant activity: the five most recent postings cover inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county prison, pharmacy benefit management for a county health consortium, virtual primary and urgent care services for county employees, peer support services for mental health workers, and medical director services for a fire department. None of these solicitations involve vascular surgery, basilic vein procedures, or any work matching the code's nominal scope. The mismatch between the code's clinical definition and the actual procurement activity indicates this Commodity code does not represent an active state and local buying category.

No representative opportunities exist under this code. The presence of the code in state and local procurement records appears to reflect either a data-entry error or a misclassification by an issuing body unfamiliar with UNSPSC surgical procedure nomenclature. Firms tracking healthcare-related state and local contracts should monitor established Family and Class codes covering institutional healthcare services (such as 81111500 Medical and surgical services or related institutional health procurement codes) rather than rely on this Commodity designation.
