UNSPSC 85523800: Principal veins upper extremities, percutaneous approach-part D

This class includes one or more of 18 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the principal veins of the upper extremities, percutaneous approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 05.

UNSPSC 85523800 Principal veins upper extremities, percutaneous approach-part D is a Class code with minimal alignment to actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific clinical vein intervention procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged to it reflect a fragmented mix of healthcare service contracts bearing little relationship to the code's stated scope—including correctional facility medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management administration, virtual primary care platforms, mental health peer support services, and municipal fire department medical director services. The mismatch between the code label and the solicitations it captures signals either persistent tagging error in the jurisdiction systems posting these opportunities or drift in how the code is being applied in practice.

Recent activity appears across Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), Georgia (Muscogee County/Columbus Consolidated Government), California (San Mateo County), and California (Santa Monica Fire Department), with issuing bodies spanning county boards of commissioners, city finance and procurement divisions, county health departments, and municipal fire services. Specific recent opportunities include the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP No. 26-0008 for inmate medical and pharmacy services (due May 15, 2026) with a current monthly cost of $95,537.71; Collier County Board of County Commissioners' RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services (due April 9, 2026) supporting 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual pharmacy spending of approximately $8.7 million; Monroe County Board of County Commissioners' RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services (due April 16, 2026) for 2,300 county members; San Mateo County Health's RFP for peer support services with $580,000 in total funding; and Santa Monica Fire Department's RFP for a medical director (due October 16, 2025). Given the disconnect between the code's clinical-procedure title and the healthcare administration and services work actually being solicited, the code does not represent a coherent procurement category for business development purposes.
