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 05ND3ZZ

UNSPSC 85523650 Release right cephalic vein, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities tagged under this code do not align with the nominal medical procedure scope — instead, they reflect state and local government purchases of comprehensive healthcare services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual care platforms, peer support programs, and medical directorship arrangements for county jails, county health plans, county emergency services, and county behavioral health divisions. The code's classification appears misaligned with the actual work being solicited.

Recent activity spans Florida, Georgia, and California jurisdictions. Collier County, Florida (board of county commissioners) is procuring pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual pharmacy spending near $8.7 million and proposals due April 9, 2026 via RFP 25-8414. Columbus Consolidated Government's Finance Department (Muscogee County Prison) issued RFP 26-0008 on April 15, 2026, for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services for a 576-inmate facility, with proposals due May 15, 2026. Monroe County, Florida is soliciting virtual primary and urgent care services through RFP posted March 14, 2026, with proposals due April 16, 2026. San Mateo County Health (California) is seeking peer support services for peer workers under a $580,000 MHSA Innovation pilot (RFP 2025-007, proposals due July 2, 2025), and Santa Monica Fire Department is recruiting a qualified physician as Medical Director through RFP 455 (proposals due October 16, 2025). Because the recent opportunities show health services contracting rather than specific procedural coding services, business developers should verify whether this code accurately reflects their service line or whether a different UNSPSC family better captures their procurement positioning.
