This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of left hand vein with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic 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 057H4DZ

UNSPSC 85523944 Dilation of left hand vein with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code tagged to medical and surgical service procurement that shows no alignment with actual recent state and local contract activity. The code nominally describes a specific clinical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code encompass independent medical evaluations for disability retirement determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve dilation of hand veins or intraluminal devices. The mismatch indicates that either the code is being misapplied by issuing bodies, or the code itself is unsuitable for categorizing the services state and local governments are actually buying under this designation.

The recent opportunities show that state and local buyers are using this code to solicit medical administration, staffing, and benefits management services rather than clinical procedures. The issuing bodies include county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System), county commissioners offices (Collier County), state departments of transportation (Washington State Department of Transportation), municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), city health benefits programs (City of Long Beach), and county juvenile probation departments (Harris County). Geographic spread covers Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with activity concentrated among county and municipal health plans and occupational health programs. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) at $750,000 over five years, the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Code applicability to clinical procedure work appears minimal; practitioners should verify coding accuracy with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities tagged to this number.
