UNSPSC 85523729: Dilation of left cephalic vein, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of left cephalic 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 057F3ZZ

UNSPSC 85523729 Dilation of left cephalic vein, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific medical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code do not align with that scope. The five solicitations on record — spanning inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care for county members, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and medical director services for a fire department — represent healthcare administration, managed care contracting, and clinical workforce support, not the vascular intervention the code name implies. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding of health-services opportunities or a data quality issue in how opportunities are being tagged to this UNSPSC category.

The issuing bodies are diverse county and municipal health agencies: Muscogee County (Georgia) Consolidated Government, Collier County (Florida) Board of Commissioners, Monroe County (Florida) Board of Commissioners, San Mateo County (California) Health Services, and the City of Santa Monica Fire Department. Activity is concentrated in Florida and California with one Georgia solicitation. Representative opportunities include the Muscogee County Prison inmate medical and pharmacy services RFP (posted April 15, 2026, due May 15, 2026, with current monthly costs of $95,537.71), Collier County's Pharmacy Benefit Management Services RFP for 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual pharmacy spending of approximately $8.7 million (posted April 9, 2026, due April 9, 2026), and Monroe County's Virtual Primary and Urgent Care Services RFP for 2,300 county members (posted March 14, 2026, due April 16, 2026). If the intent is to pursue healthcare services contracting with state and local jurisdictions, this code appears to be a routing error; vendors should verify the actual UNSPSC codes under which these opportunities are genuinely classified in procurement systems.
