UNSPSC 85523500: Principal veins upper extremities, percutaneous approach-part A

This class includes one or more of 18 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the principal veins of the upper extremities, percutaneous approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 05.

UNSPSC 85523500 Principal veins upper extremities, percutaneous approach-part A is a Class code with no recent state and local procurement activity that corresponds to its nominal scope. The five most-recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code—covering inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction—do not involve vascular intervention, percutaneous procedures, or upper-extremity venous access. The mismatch suggests either systematic misclassification in the source data or that this code does not reflect current state and local purchasing patterns for clinical healthcare services.

Given the absence of relevant recent solicitations under this code's actual scope, no meaningful market characterization is possible. A business development professional evaluating pursuit opportunities should treat this code as inactive for state and local procurement purposes pending evidence of properly classified opportunities.
