UNSPSC 85523526: Insertion of infusion device into left hand vein, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of infusion device into left hand vein, percutaneous 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 05HH33Z

UNSPSC 85523526 Insertion of infusion device into left hand vein, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code with minimal alignment to recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific clinical procedure — percutaneous venous access to the left hand — yet the six recent solicitations captured in state and local contract databases target services that do not match this narrow procedural scope. The opportunities instead span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluation for pension disability determinations, surgical Center of Excellence networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these services involves insertion of infusion devices into the left hand or any procedural intervention matching the code's technical definition. The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the nature of actual opportunities suggests either that this code is rarely used by state and local buyers for procurement tagging, or that the opportunities tagged under it reflect administrative or classification errors rather than true demand for the described procedure.

No active state and local procurement opportunities for infusion-device insertion services appear in the recent record. The code shows no issuing-body mix, geographic concentration, or representative recent opportunities aligned with its nominal scope. State and local procurement under this UNSPSC code does not merit pursuit at this time.
