UNSPSC 85523707 Extirpation of matter from left brachial vein, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The UNSPSC category name describes a specific surgical procedure (percutaneous removal of matter from a brachial vein), yet recent opportunities posted under this code across state and local jurisdictions—including the City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County, and Collier County—solicit disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, surgical benefit carve-outs, and temporary health professional staffing. These opportunities have no connection to the code's stated scope and appear to represent a systematic miscoding across multiple issuing bodies rather than actual procurement of the procedure named in the UNSPSC taxonomy.

The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas, but the mismatch between code definition and actual work being bought renders this code unreliable for business development targeting. Vendors pursuing state and local opportunities in occupational health services, disability medical evaluations, or health plan administration should monitor those service categories directly rather than rely on this UNSPSC code for opportunity identification.
