UNSPSC 85523663: Occlusion of left brachial vein with extraluminal device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of left brachial vein with extraluminal device, 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 05LA3CZ

UNSPSC 85523663 "Occlusion of left brachial vein with extraluminal device, percutaneous approach" is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical vascular procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out benefit programs, and emergency medical services for youth in custody—none of which involve brachial vein occlusion devices or the percutaneous vascular intervention the code describes. The mismatch suggests either a data-coding error in how opportunities were tagged or that the code is not actively used by state and local procurement offices for medical device or surgical supply purchasing. The issuing bodies in the recent records include city retirement offices, county health systems, county commissioners, state departments of transportation, and county juvenile probation departments.

No recent opportunities represent actual procurement of occluding devices or related vascular intervention supplies under this code. The geographic spread of the sample spans Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas, but this reflects the diversity of issuing bodies rather than genuine activity in the code's nominal commodity area. Given the clear divergence between the code's scope and what is actually being solicited, this code warrants investigation to clarify whether it is properly maintained in state and local procurement taxonomies or whether opportunities are being misclassified. A business pursuing vascular intervention supplies or percutaneous brachial vein occlusion devices should not rely on this code to identify relevant solicitations.
