UNSPSC 85523723: Drainage of right brachial vein, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of right brachial 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 05993ZZ

UNSPSC 85523723 Drainage of right brachial vein, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code with minimal relevance to recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure involving venous drainage—does not align with the health-care and administrative services actually being solicited under this code designation by state and local agencies. Recent opportunities tagged to this code span independent medical evaluations for pension benefit determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for transportation workers, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health-professional staffing services. None of these activities involve the procedural intervention the code name describes.

The issuing bodies soliciting under this code include city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal employee benefits programs (Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), county human resources divisions (Collier County), and county health systems (Santa Clara). Geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, maximum contract value $750,000 over five years), the City of Long Beach RFP for surgical benefit carve-out services for approximately 3,800 employees and retirees (HR26753, due October 7, 2026, contract term two years with three optional one-year renewals), and the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, two-year term with option to extend for five additional one-year periods). The code shows a fundamental mismatch between its procedural nomenclature and the administrative, staffing, and care-coordination services state and local agencies are actually buying under it.
